I am using Cinnamon with Rebecca.

Thanks for you suggestion. I did move them into a temp folder with no problem. However, on the menu that pops up when you want to change the desktop background still lists the folder even though there are no files in them. No I have to find out how to edit that menu to remove them.

Before I do something I will regret, is there any danger in deleting the Backdrops, Backgrounds, and Wallpaper folders from usr>share. I have my own desktop backgrounds. Thanks.

Yes, you are correct, it is Mint that I am having the problem. I does work in Windows. Having said that, you may be on to something. I did as you said and disable via about:plugins. However, having done that the puzzle icon is no longer visible on the webpage. Enable it and it reappears but with the...

I have a fresh install of both Windows-7 and Linux Mint 17.1 that I am dual booting. I have come across a unique problem with respect to Adobe Flash Player and Chrome (not Chromium), at least it's unique to me. I have absolutely no problem playing flash video, but the daily puzzle Cyptogram, found i...

Will I lose anything if I do a reinstall of Cinnamon?

I use the HTML theme Mint-X for the Login screen and it all works fine. Could the animated greeter be the culprit?

Nope. I changed to the same Mint-X. I don't even get the silhouette for my pic with that. This is perplexing. Thank you for all you help.

I been wondering that my self. I'll check that out and let you know.

I mentioned accessing "Users and Groups" earlier. The same image should appear there as well as on the greeter. Would you check that please. Can you provide some details of the image you are trying to use - such as format, size and location. The picture currently resides on my home direct...

Well, here's another twist. In a previous post I told of making a guest account with icon that worked. However, I tried one of the provided icon for my account and that does not work. Now what?

I have experimented with a number of image files to show up in the Login Greeter with the result that size does not matter since whatever you choose will be converted to 16.8 kB in png format. Do check that you have the required permission for your image so that you are listed as the owner of the i...

It is not locked.

Would it be possible for you to test afresh by adding a new user with picture in settings and checking if it appears on selecting new user in greeter? OK. That worked. I added a user pic from one of the icon pictures provided. So that tells me there is something wrong with the personalized pic I'm ...

My picture is indeed in the Users and Groups. It just doesn't show up on the greeter (log in) screen.

Did that before my post. It doesn't put it on the Greeter.

How do I put a user icon picture on the greeter? I'm running Qiana with Cinnamon.

I have loaded the Qiana V2 respin on an a Toshiba L755. I have a well know problem with the sound card in as it works for a short time before going silent. Usb powered speakers with an audio jack works fine. I want to get a usb bluetooth dongle for use with bluetooth speakers. Does anyone know of a ...

I wanted to check how much data I was using. I was thinking about going with a different internet provider that got really expensive after 10gb per month. I went through that in 2-week, so at this the point is moot. Thanks.

I have downloaded and installed the .deb version of NTM, and even though autorun is checked, I have to manual start it. How do I make a custom startup (command, etc.) with Startup Applications to do this?

Nope. You are the only one that has even replied.
