Create a custom.xml for Gnome wallpaper slideshow**** 29 November 2012 *****
Ran into a bug since I originally shared this: If you use the link from the slideshow.xml for easy access by apps like gdm3setup make sure you either have it in a different folder than the images, or remove it before running the nautilus script. If you don't it will be added to the custom.xml and will not display that 'image' correctly.
My solution was to place them in /usr/share/GDM so I no longer have to worry about it.
****************************************************************
I use a nautilus script that I found via Webupd8 http://www.webupd8.org/2011/12/create-wallpaper-slideshow-with-xml.html to create a wallpaper slideshow, but the problem is that to add one that's already been created is a PITA, at least to me.
That sent me on a quest to figure out how to add my custom wallpapers so they would show up in System Settings > Backgrounds so that I could create custom collections and easily select them. I looked at numerous pages similar

I hate to say this... but why? what is the goal of creating a "theme" like this? not sure what the goal is here... not flaming you as I am interested in Docky myself but not sure what you are going for here...

It's a tutorial on how to make Docky themes, not a theme.

~geoprime73 Jun 26, 2012

I guess I am just not getting... again not trying to be a pain in the butt, but I am not seeing a practical use for this... I understand it isnt a theme but again, just not seeing a use for it. Is this leading into something or am I just missing it. I a m new to Ubuntu myself so forgive me.

If you're not interested in making themes for Docky then it's no use to you.

~geoprime73 Jun 26, 2012

its not really that, I am interested in themes and if I can make them thats even better, but like I said I just am not getting it. I guess if I actually try to make a theme I might understand. I will have to try to give it a shot later when i get home from work. Again, I am not trying to be a pain. I am just trying to understand...

Well theme Docky and you'll understand.
