D�cor allows you to replace the desktop pattern with a background
picture of your choice. You can have it display a file, or pick one
from a folder. D�cor recognizes StartupScreen, PICT, GIF and JPEG
files. All changes to its settings take effect without needing to
restart the computer. D�cor reacts correctly to screen depth or screen
resolution changes. It can change the picture automatically every once
in a while. It has support for dragging and scripting. It is
accelerated for PowerPC Macs and it even comes with a control strip
module for faster access!

"D�cor works fine under Mac OS 7, 8 and 9. (Under 8.0 and 8.1, you
must disable the Desktop Pictures control panel. Under 8.5.x, you need
to press "Remove Picture", then "Set Desktop" in the Appearance
control panel.)
If you use [Kaleidoscope][6], you will need to turn off its "Desktop
Pattern" option, otherwise D�cor will not be able to work."
Tested under OS 9.2.2 on an iMac G3 - works fine.
