Why? The buttons provide a visual que (preview) of what the desktop will
look like for each type of background layout. Using an option menu and
updating a larger image is pointless as changing the preference will
automatically change the desktop background (INSTANT APPLY) and at this
point a preview is worthless. Seth's background design is really nice,
please don't break it.
