A-1 >> Yes, GIFConverter (latest vers 2.1.10) will do that. Although you will have to set the color startup screen option in the preferences the first time you use it. A-2 >> DeskPict is a shareware program that will do just what you need. However, I have a problem with the way it does it. Namely you need a file named "DeskPicture" with a PICT resource #0 containing the picture. I liked the way BackDrop (a similar program that only handled B&W) did everything >> a folder called screens containing the plain pictures, any name you want individually, dynamic switching of backdrops (no restart), random rotation of files, etc.
