          Found the problem. It's silly. It's a filename issue. If the filename contains a parenthesis (left or right), you get this issue.

              Ah yes, I see that.
              If I have (e.g.) 'Filename (1)' or ...(2), (3) etc.,
              then it doesn't work!!
              I'll use a hyphen instead of the bracket:
              instead of filename (1) filename-1 ...-2, -3 etc.
              I hope it works then!
              Thank you for your research and for letting me know!!

              What does "File Bug DNA-108940 for this" mean in your last mail?

                In means I filed a bug report in Opera's bug tracker so hopefully this will get fixed. That is the bug number for it. Viewing bugs is not open to the public, so me posting the bug number is just for reference so users can check the changelogs for it. Users can post their own reports though.

                  Thank you for identifying the problem. i edited the file name to remove parenthesis and it works. Is there any way I can track the status of the bug report you submitted?

                  Well, time to edit all my wallpaper file names

                    I just reinstalled (updated) Opera, but I still can't load images with brackets.
                    But with a dash and a number it works!
                    Then I can rename the picture again because Opera has saved the picture (with dash and number).

                    regards

                        No, but the bug is fixed internally. Watch the 102 changelog for DNA-108940.
