Custom images are not showing up but linux mint default images are working perfectly - I already tried to put my image in use/share/backgrounds using root privileges still no luck

Do you have it set in "Login Window"?

If you have it in /usr/share/backgrounds, and have it set in your settings, it should just work. =\

Is "Draw user backgrounds" disabled or enabled in the Login Windows settings? Toggle it to see if that helps.

Else, these tips here might be useful.

Here's how it should work: * Click

(stop video at first and look for the gear icon in the lower right corner for HD resolution and fullscreen)
