Bug Description
I just got a new hard drive and installed elementary latest from the main download page.
Installation went fine, but I am unable to set any background that did not come with the iso.
When I try to select any background I download off the internet, I get a black background instead.
I have tried moving my jpgs to /usr/share/
When I open switchboard in a command prompt, and select a custom wallpaper, I get the following output on the console:
[_LOG_LEVEL_WARN 20:58:09.821170] [Gtk] drawing failure for widget `WallpaperConta

I am getting the same bug whenever trying to select a 'Custom...' Wallpaper.
There is also a weird thing going on in the Desktop wallpaper previewer, where when I select a background image, the preview of other background images disappears (see attachment: It has all the previews missing after the selected image).
