Hi. This is my first post to a newsgroup in a couple of decades. Good to
be back. Anyway I am new to Linux Mint. I am currently running Virginia
(21.3) I've tried to install some of the prepacked themes but they all
have the same issue. The included wallpaper never loads. I've tried
looking for them in the backgrounds settings but they're never there. Any
idea where to look for them at?

You normally open settings->backgrounds and pick from there. If you
don't have them, you can look for wallpapers in synaptic. Ubuntu
wallpapers.

Is this what you did?

I just noticed that you said a 'theme' and the wallpaper never loads.
Themes do not have wallpapers.
I'm sure there are some themes that can be downloaded (not part of the
upgrade) that might come with a wallpaper but not the standard mint-y
and mint-x and mint-l desktop themes.

If we are talking about the same thing that is...

Thanks for the reply. I was looking at the CBlue theme and it said it
included a wallpaper. After applying the theme I looked for it under
"backgrounds" but the wallpaper wasn't there. I clicked through all of
the options such as Linux Mint, Vanessa, etc. I even checked my Pics
folder in off chance it might have ended up there.

Please disregard. I finally found it at ~/.themes/CBlue/cinnamon/
Wallpaper.png. Thanks for your assistance though!

I've downloaded that one too. I was just going to say that writers
usually put a single wallpaper inside the theme directory.
Glad it was found.
