At home. When I go into appearance and custumization and choose browse go to my folder where my pics are and select it, it brings me back into the previous windows with all the other options Ex. Screensaver sounds.
and obiously when I right click and say set as backround nothing happens. So how I fix this?

try a restore point back to when it worked. You might have installed something to mess it up or something ...
