Give deskpict a try it is availible from sumex in /init/deskpict.hqx.
it uses a pict res id 0 called 'DeskPicture' but it does take memory.
I finally had to stop running it since my machine only has 2 meg. but it
works pretty well. I did not run into any problems, except with programs that
used the system clut and did not change it back.
