desktop wallpaper

Whenever I create a new Space, Monterey applies that ugly new purple wallpaper instead of the one I chose in preferences. How do I fix this?

You have to select the wallpaper in preferences for each Space.

why is it stupid? some people prefer different wallpapers for different spaces. so, there's an option for everyone.

I'm having an issue where I go in and select a desktop wall paper, and I have it set to change pictures every day from a small group of images, and everyday when I turn on my MBP, I end up with ugly Pink Screen not only on the page where I pick a user, but there it is again on my desktop. This seems like a bug to me. I just checked my System Preferences: Desktop and Screensaver, and the pictures are there with the change daily checkbox checked. I'm thinking this is a bug.

Now the system allows me to pick a folder on my computer to display as desktop backgrounds. I wonder if I would have been luck if I moved them to the desktop pictures folder?

It's stupid, because when I change an option, I expect it to take effect.
If I want different wallpapers, then I can go and change them after.
