You need to save the picture as a "PICT" resource with the name DeskPicture and put it in the system folder along with the init. Superpaint can save PICT and startup screen formats, but the init works best if the picture is saved as a resource. Create/modify your favorite picture, save it as PICT (preferably) and using Adobe PhotoShop or PixelPaint Professional save the picture as a PICT RESOURCE. That should do the trick. ## Keshav
