Re: [Solved]Wallpapers are not showing in Cinnamon Backgrounds

I did search it earlier, must have missed it. Anyways Thanks.
And I did some research and found out that cinnamon uses "python-pillow" to resize the image to show in cinnamon-settings background and since ANTIALIAS was removed in Pillow 10.0.0 (after being deprecated through many previous versions), and it wasn't working because the older code was depended on it. And a month ago they have replaced PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS with PIL.Image.LANCZOS. Well now we just need an update containing the fix
