A workaround is to copy the desired wallpaper into /usr/share/backgrounds and rename it using one of the filenames of the default files found there: $ sudo mv /usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.jpg /usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.bkp $ sudo cp ~/Pictures/a-blue2.jpg /usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.jpg $ sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/backgrounds/Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.jpg
Now, opening System Settings -> Apperance should display your photo as Delicate_Petals_by_lefthandgergo.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/928553 Title: Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/928553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
