Bug description:
Something that I have been long annoyed about is the fact that if I
want to select something as my desktop wallpaper which I don't want to
move into my Pictures folder, and isn't already one of the built-in
wallpapers that comes with Ubuntu GNOME, I have to either locate it in
a file manager and select the set as wallpaper option from the right-
click menu, or I have to use an application such as Photos.
What I would much prefer is to be able to go into the gnome-control-
center's Background section and have a button which would allow me to
select custom locations for looking for wallpaper images so that it
would list all the image contents of a certain folder, or I would be
able to just choose a certain image anywhere on my hard-drive and it
would copy that file into my Wallpaper folder and then use it. Even if
there is no option to choose a custom location to look in as well as
or instead of the Pictures folder, an option to choose a custom image
from anywhere on the hard-drive would be good that would allow for you
to browse for it.
Obviously I mean this would be the case for both the desktop wallpaper
and the lock screen wallpaper.
