Root How to get rid of all the live wallpapers

I'm using titanium backup to try and get rid of all the live wallpapers because i'll never use them. I see some of them listed by name in TB, but I can't find all of them. Is there some package that contains most of the stock live wallpapers that if I uninstall it, they all will be removed?

On another note, since flashing to Velocity, I can't seem to get my Google contacts list to sync and I can't remember how I did it originally. Anyone remember how it's done?
 
Velocity 0.3 has some script to remove all the live wallpaper stuff (well, move it to a hidden directory on your SD card, at least...)

But, here they are (all the ones included with Velocity):

LiveWallpapers.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
VisualizationWallpapers.apk
Droid2Eye.apk
DroidXEye.apk

And then there's LiveWallpapersPicker.apk, which is the chooser. You can delete this, too, if you never want to select a live wallpaper.

Oh, and Google Maps includes a live wallpaper.

The google maps one isn't a homescreen wallpaper. It shows weather conditions inside of google maps.

Open terminal and type these. Each line break means hit enter.
