Howdy--

I'd like to have one large peice of wallpaper that covers the whole
background with the exception of a space at the bottom for Icons.

Any Idea how big a piece of wallpaper can be?  How big can one make
a paintbrush file (.bmp) in inches??

Please reply to me at jm@sead.siemens.com rather than the return address
on this article, and don't post, I'll summarize, OK?

Thanks.
