How does one use vertical photos as wallpaper without having them spread out over the whole window? Must be a tweak somewhere. Thanks.


No, it only results in an enlarged portion of the original. As you can see from the previous messages, reducing it to 800x600 works but it certainly is annoying to have to do that everytime one wishes to use a vertical image.
