This may have been discussed but I can't find it, but do you know if it's possible to delete the images you don't like from that linkss/screensavers folder and just leave the ones you want?

Might be a dumb question but there's only one of the default ones that I actually want to see all the time.

I believe all you have to do it delete the ones you don't want then restart the Kindle via Home > Menu > Settings > Menu > Restart. You would use the same procedure to add additional images to your screensavers folder.

I base my answer on NiLuJe's response here.
