Mine does too, but I get pictures that I want to use as backdrops and I
don't wanna resize and change them by adding borders and such... It is
easier if the prfs program can intelligently(?) add a colored border around
an image too small to fill the screen or scale it to fit on the fly.
CGWBPattern did all these. I want to be lazy and not have to do this in an
image processing program (I could easily do it in ImageFX if I desired).
