Unhappy can't change my background picture anymore

I don't know how to take screen shots, but my background won't allow me to change it anymore. I use to be able to right click / properties/background but now the background tab is compleatly gone. I've also tried clicking on (my computer) and specifying a picture as a my background even after I click and tell it to be my background I'm still stuck with the same picture I had before that is now for some reason off center and driving me nuts. HELP please!

I have the same problem, I now have the desktop tab back but I can only click on the different colors. It does nothing when I try a picture. Any help would be appreciated.
