In Workbench prefs turn quality to BAD, and in WBPattern set Dither Quality
to POOR... I believe that turns dithering off.

Does anyone know of a good program that will allow scaling of the WB
backdrop or center it if you keep the size as-is? CGWBPattern workd great
with WB3.1 but with WB3.5 it quit working correctly. I liked the options it
offered and hope that the WB3.5+ WBPattern would provide options.
