Well, what I do is:

	1. Save the picture file from DPaint
	2. Exit DPaint and go to the CLI
	3. "run" an IFF viewer program on the file
	4. Switch back to the CLI and run a hack screendump program
	   a friend of mine wrote that allows me to explicitly specify
	   the X and Y output resolution.  "scrdump -c640 -r400"

Now I think you can actually accomplish the same thing from within DPaint,
but I find it easier to remember how to use the screendump hack.  If you
want to get ahold of it, it was written by Kerry Zimmerman who's on the
net at this site (cadovax!kaz), maybe you can convince him to post it.
