I would love to have one of my many Escher macpics as the desktop pattern, but
when I got Backdrop for my SE/30, it didn't work; the image was mutilated and
smeared about (the desktop pattern being the image; 'Escher's Reptiles'), and
I finally just threw it away. Is there a program that will achieve the same
effects of Backdrop on my SE/30? Did I just have an old version and it has been
updated? AhH!

Backdrop has not been recently updated and is incompatible with Quickdraw, thus incompatible with the SE/30 on up. However, there is an alternative that should work just as well. It's called DeskPicture (or DeskPict). The complete package is available for FTP on sumex-aim.stanford.edu in the directory /info-mac/inits.
