Does anyone know if there is a "new" version of Backdrop which works on
the SE/30.  The version I have works; however, when you move a window which
has been on top of the "backdrop," the picture gets chopped to bits and after
a while looks like quite a mess.  It seems Deskpict does it correctly on
the mac ii's and the one picture that comes with it works perfectly on the 
SE/30 (internal screen) since it is a 1-bit picture.  Does anyone know
how to create pictures (possibly convert superpaint or macpaint files) into
the format that Deskpict wants?  Also, if anyone has any other 1-bit pictures
that would work with Deskpict, I wouldn't mind getting hold of them.

Thanks in advance.
