How can I use gif/jpg pictures? You don't. Windows only supports bmps for wallpaper. What you ask for will require you to either: 1) simply convert the images to bmp first 2) use the IActiveDesktop interface instead (ActiveDesktop is a feature introduced in InternetExplorer4). Note that this requires IE4 to be installed (all systems running Win98 or higher already have that - Win95 and WinNT need a separate installation), and that ActiveDesktop needs to be enabled by the user before it can be utilized.
