I'm new to using mac's in general and my department has
given me a IIci to play with for the next few months.
I've seen millions of mac users with a picture in the
background behind their windows, so without regard to
work I've been trying to do that with my machine.
I've got a program called "backdrop" version 2.16 that
says it will do it, and as far as I can tell, it tries.
My test picture is just something I scribbled in macpaint
and it does show it after the startup picture (also built
with macpaint) but as soon as the desktop appears it
is erased.  Is there a program I can put in my system file that
will put up a background picture on a mac ii (with color screen)?
