Raymond,

There was a change in PasteUpMorph>>pseudoDraw:on: to improve gradient fill backgrounds which, unfortunately, hurt image backgrounds. If you revert to the previous version of this method, images will work better, but I can't vouch for the gradients.

Interestingly enough, once you set an image background, certain world/appearance menu items start breaking:

- set gradient color will get a simple walkback
- set desktop color hangs it all up

While we are on this subject, has anyone tried making the desktop translucent? Whoa!

Cheers,
Bob
