Hi PJ,
The pictures that show up under display properties, desktop are located in
these folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\user name\My Documents\My Pictures
C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper
C:\Windows\Resources\Themes
Under My Computer scroll down to Shared Documents/Shared Pictures. If
Shared Pictures is listed, remove it.
TweakUI for XP: Unchecking "Lock Web Content" under Explorer to be added
to desktop disables the pictures from being listed.

Workarounds:
Create another folder (under your user profile), remove the pictures from My
Pictures that you don't want listed under Backgrounds and in the My Pictures
folder, create a shortcut to the new folder. Or create subfolders within My
Pictures.
Add Folders to the "Save As" Dialog (Places Bar) Line 117
