Message-ID: <1991May15.165022.13635@hellgate.utah.edu> Date: 15 May 91 22:50:22 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: University of Utah CS Dept Lines: 17 I was using a program I got from sumex called DeskPict for awhile, but when I got System 7b4 it started acting up. Whenever the desktop got redrawn (for instance, when I emptied the trash or put something into it), icons out on the desktop would disappear if they were in the same vertical line as the trashcan (or whatever). If I moved fonts onto the desktop, then moved them into the system folder, they would cause ALL the icons on the desktop to disappear! Well, I got the "Real" System 7 today, and was hoping it would fix that prob, but no dice. What I want to know is... what other PD/Shareware programs do the same thing as DeskPict? (for those who don't know, DeskPict lets one put a color picture in the root window...) Thanks in advance, Hank.
