[comp.sys.mac.misc] MandelZot and DeskPict

Hello, 
  I'm trying to use MandelZot to create a background picture for !DeskPict.
I make a full screen picture, copy it, paste it into a PICT 0 resource with
ResEdit, and reboot. Everything works, except the bottom half inch or
so of the screen is full of garbage. On some attempts I could even see some
of MZ's scroll bar preserved in the background.
   Is this a problem with DeskPict, MandelZot, my system, or me? I'm using
DeskPict 1.1, either MandelZot 2.1 or 3.0, ResEdit 1.2, and System 6.0.5
on a IIcx with Apple's 13" color monitor.
  On a related topic, are there any archives of color startup screens out there?
I don't have any graphics programs that can handle color, so I can't roll my
own (except with MandelZot, of course).

       Thanks,
              Steve   (langer@control.uchicago.edu)

sumex has some 'info-mac/art' archives. I haven't dl's any, though, so I don't
know if they are color.
