Hello,
I am trying to change my wallpaper to a custom image that isn't
already preloaded on qubes and I am having a hell of a time. I try to
right click and select set as background, but when i hit apply, the
screen goes away and nothing happens. I tried to copy the file from
the domain that I am in (anon-whonix) to dom0 like it say in the
instructions on your website, but it tells me to go to the
home/user/Qubes-Incoming, which gives me an error saying that that
directory doesn't exist. I've also tried to copy it through the GUI to
dom0 and it says it copied, but when i try to open the file manager or
the wallpaper settings, the image is also not in there. I've tried
going on the subreddit, reading both instructions via gui and command
line, and still am getting the errors of the file location not
existing or it telling me it copied when it in fact didn't. Could you
please tell me what i am doing wrong here as i am at a loss.
Thanks,
Alex

Setting wallpaper in an appvm won't work; The file has to be moved to
dom0 first. If you're not sure about the safety of the image, the easist
safe way to do it is to view the image in the vm then press the Print
Screen key and save the screenshot to the dom0 home folder. Then you can
go into System Settings and select the file. But you may want to crop
the image afterward.
