           Summary: HTML wallpapers are confuse for non experienced users
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.7
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: saulotoledo at gmail.com


Version:           4.7 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

Some kde-look wallpapers, when I download from Plasma Desktop Shell, are in
HTML format (in reality, they are links for author's website). But If I confirm
their installation, they will never work! I saw a lot of users with problems:
they install the wallpaper, confirm the question and ask "where is the
wallpaper I've downloaded? This software has a bug".

If They don't work, why they are listed at Plasma list?

I vote to simple remove them from the list.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open the desktop wallpaper management (Right click on desktop ->
Configurations...)
2) Download some wallpapers, some of them will show some message because they
aren't images
3) Install some of this wallpapers and see they aren't at wallpapers list.

Actual Results:  
Garbage on wallpapers folder at .kde directory on user home, and no wallpapers.

Expected Results:  
No downloads who don't work...
