Currently you use the words "Background", "Wallpaper" and "Image" in the
same dialog. The terminology must be clear and consistent. If i'm not
mistaken the word "Wallpaper" refers to an image used as background
therefore your use of "Wallpaper Colors" would suggest that the color
scheme of the selected wallpaper/image could be changed. I think that
this string should be changed to "Background Colors". 

The "Select a Random Image" string should be changed to "Select a Random
Wallpaper" and the dialog also needs correct grouping. Meaning that the
"Select a Random Wallpaper" should be moved up and be placed before the
"Background Colors" thingie because it's related to the wallpaper
settings and not the background colors.
