"AN" - ON
"AUS" - OFF

"LADEN" - Load IMG, GIF or GFB files
"SPEICHERN" - Save GFB file

"SICHREN" - Save configuration

I would suggest you to use GFB files due to it is a native Deskpic file format and they are loaded much faster.

Load "LADEN" GIF and save "SPEICHERN" as GFB

Thank you for all your help! :) What would be your recommendation for converting jpg to GFB files? I have Paint Shop Pro 9, XnView, and Photoshop CS2.

I understand now. Hadn't read your message accurately. All I have to do now is stop it duplicating a portrait image across the whole screen and instead centre it and I'm sorted!

Have you any idea how to stop it tiling the image. I can't get an image in the centre. It's driving me nuts!

Have you tried using ImageMagick (convert)?
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.
