In Windows, go to the Control Panel and open Desktop. There is an option in there to change the bitmap. There are many good bitmaps out there in many FTP sites such as SIMTEL-20 (or WUARCHIVE), grape, snake, etc. etc. There are also programs available to convert .GIF and others to .BMP...look for them at FTP sites too. =-= Eric =-=
