we, at the design team, are searching for a way to add attribution to wallpapers. We'd like to display it in the tooltip that appears in when you hoover over an wallpaper in backgrounds chooser in a similar format that KDE does it, e.g.

<b><wallpaper name></b> Author:<author name>

<basic image info> Folder:<path to where the image is>

As you see, it only adds the 'Author:' line to what already is there. Is there some way to do it currently, or would we need to write a patch to background chooser?

I think we may need also an URL for proper credit (for example when we are using a Free image taken from flickr) - or can we abuse the <basic image info> for that?

Plus, is there any place where I can get the DTD file that's used as DOCTYPE in all XMLs in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties:

<!DOCTYPE wallpapers SYSTEM "gnome-wp-list.dtd">

I cannot find it anywhere (hence the reason why I ask if there already IS a way)...

Just FYI, I attach a (quick) patch that does this.
