To change background images go into the Display section of the Control Panel and select a background.

also, just because the screenshot of a theme has a specific wallpaper featured, doesn't mean the theme will have it included. and in 99% of the themes, they won't be.

yeah, but some of us had more sense than some of these people seem to. ;) and no, pop[sic]kill, I'm not talking about you. and, I just noticed the first part of your problem. what happens when you try to switch to themes other that phen.type2? and if you're going to reply back saying nothing, then I'm going just tell you to read the forums. there's dozens of threads concerning that exact problem.

oh it's the lsts issue again :D
does omar's installer still include that old buggy version?

go here and try what I describe: http://www.litestep.net/index.php?section=4&action=view&catId=2&id=1218. if that doesn't work, then it's the buggy lsts version, and download the updated version. loose-screws.com should have it, I believe.
