Wallpaper

Hello, is there a method of getting the players wallpaper only into image data to use within a game?

Thanks

On windows 7 at least, the wallpaper is located at "%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\TranscodedWallpaper.jpg". You could probably use the io module to read that. However, you'd have to know exactly what OS you're on and find out the wallpaper locations for each.
