The information in that blog post is not entirely correct. If you want to be able to set different background for all 9 views, you also need to install an enhanced version of hildon-home. Instructions for this are somewhere in this thread.
Also, "nabeel - n900/images/01.jpg" is not a correct path.

Anyone know if there are downsides to using modified desktop? I am wondering if systems updates would still happen, etc..

The version that should not be used is the one in extras-devel (which has been removed from that repository, since then).
The version in my repository is current, supported (in the sense that I fix bugs if found), and is perfectly safe. It works just like hildon-desktop, and you can only enable the extra features you are interested in.

I was scared off by the first few comments on that page. but yes i agree, i dont know first hand what i am talking about. just passing on some of the info from that ink to save folks a click and a bunch of comments.

But since it's perfectly safe as you say that is awesome!
Now i wanna go back and try and download

If your folder ".barbalonga" is located outside the folder "images", you should write:
gconftool -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/5/bg-image -t string /home/user/MyDocs/barbalonga/your_picture.jpg

I tried the above, the background is still black. Lets say im going to the file through the file manager:
.Barbalonga --> Images --> 01.jpeg
so i wrote:
the command followed by /home/user/MyDocs/.Barbalonga/Images/01.jpeg
still wrong?
