Dreamscapes Win8 Problems

Hey everyone. New to the site and to dreamscapes. I have windows 8 and dreamscapes installed properly. I can also download wallpapers properly as well. But when I apply the wallpapers to my desktop, my desktop is just a black screen. Anyone have any suggestions to help me get the actual wallpaper to show up? Thanks.

Also, I recently had a similar issue, a simple uninstall using Stardock Central, a restart of system, and reinstall of DeskScapes 8 fixed the issue.

Also make sure you have the newest video card drivers installed.
