	Backdrop seems to be having problems on my Mac II.  Backdrop 
puts up a Macpaint document on the desktop.  It chooses (randomly) from
the Macpaint documents in a folder called Screens in your system folder.
The backdrop comes up fine, but when I open up my hard disk, and then 
close it, (or do anything else on the screen) the desktop gets all messed up.
It seems that it isn't redrawing the desktop properly.  I am using system 
6.0.2 and the standard Mac II monitor.  If anyone has an answer, or a program 
that they know of that does the same thing as Backdrop, (and works on a MacII)
let me know.  This set up works fine on a Mac plus.
