QT apps (i.e. VLC) will look better or otherwise match the GTK+ theme you're using.

grimlok: XFCE is grr8! I think it would look better if you installed the package qt4-qtconfig and then set the gui style to GTK. cheers

So I got tired of dealing with the new GNOME and ended up going with XFCE to get the results I want. Had to play around with some things but it's getting there. Screenshot attached. Thanks everyone! grimlok

Thanks for the response Opon.. If you right-click on an image, one of the menu options is Set as Wallpaper. This doesn't help for tiled wallpaper, there is no tile function which is frustrating. I think it has been. If you don't like it, you may want to try a different file manager.

If you want a tiled wallpaper I think you can use GNOME Tweak Tool. If you don't like Nautilus you can replace it with Cinnamon's Nemo: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/nemo

You could try the nitrogen package for picking wallpapers. It allows custom directory and background color and tiling.

Very sad that one has to find something else to make something work the way they want it, when it worked that way before. If I'm thinking of what you're thinking of, it was removed from Nautilus because it was deemed unnecessary. It makes sense given GNOME's design principles. Is there
