if you just take off the dot, then it changes the name of the folder, and next time you run Wine it will create a new .wine folder and not find your other one (as far as I know).  You'll have to launch the program setting the WINEPREFIX variable to $HOME/wine so it won't default to $HOME/.wine every time.

like...
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/wine wine myProgram.exe

or if your scripting it to launch...

Code:
export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/wine"
export WINEDLLOVERRIDES="gdiplus=n"
cd "$HOME/wine/drive_c/Program Files/Photoscape/"
wine PhotoScape.exe



of course instead of using "wine" for the prefix you could always rename it and place it wherever you want it.
