Is there a way to find out what scenes are shown by the pretty landscape
backgrounds? I wish they would be shown by some special key combos.

By looking at them? Probably however you access them in the first
place, the way you know they exist.

I don't understand the question.

It's called "Display Properties"...

Easiest way probably is to right-click on an open area of your "Desktop"
screen, and click Properties. You can also access it via your Control
Panel, but depending on which rendition yours is set to display, could take
several explorations by those much more skilled at spelunking than am I.

HTH.

How will I ever be able to listen to Shoutcast Radio again?

So many hours; so many songs; so many girlfriends;
so many smiles; so many "our songs"; so many good times...
I believe I'll be going into mourning now... I understand
that it is a "process" - and right now I am realizing an
overwhelming sense of "Shock and Disbelief"!

Is your question: to know of what and where these were taken or just to
preview a theme before installing?

If you can find the .jpg file in question, there might be an
EXIF header with description text. Or the file may have
a comments section you can view in Properties. That's what I was
checking on some downloads from the Microsoft site.
