when you say "it is ther, yet it is not there" do you mean that you have a ghost of the images outline?

The picture is there as clear as day but if I left or right click on it it behaves the same as the rest of the desktop.
No matter what I do with the background image - delete it, change it etc the picture remains on the top of it, in the same position

Hi Anna,

Can you change the background image at all?  That is, away from Tulips?

You restarted the computer, but was that before or after moving the image from its folder - if before, then I would imagine another restart may be worth trying.

I can use any picture I want as the back ground - the image still stays at the top.

I restarted the pc before and after deleting the file - nothing is changing

When you right click on it and go to Properties, what does it say?

So it's not giving you the properties of the image as a separate file , just the properties of the desk top ???
