			selected file.  It is not intended to be a high quality viewer, so
			some images may be severely distored.  However, if you would like to
			view the images in their "natural" size, just click on the picture
			and wallpaper manager will put it on the windows desktop.

File List Box		Double-click (or press enter) on any item in this list box to change
			the current wallpaper.
