That should take care of saving the wallpapers as photos anyways. If the "save as wallpaper" feature doesn't work, then run this as well: ln -s /Library/Wallpaper /Library/Wallpaper Lol I’m not exactly sure what he was saying either Mike, Just run this command: ln -s /private/var/mobile/Media/DCIM /private/var/root/Media/DCIM.

Am I supposed to delete a folder or what. I'm trying to get the wallpaper app to save the images in the correct place. I'm running 1.1.3 and it save them to a different location. I would like to be able to save them to my camera roll or use a wallpaper. Can someone please help me out a little more. I have read the above instructions about 5 time now and I do NOT understand
