Hello Folks

I've been searching for a copy of this poster for years!

Just found this high(ish) res scan, the first I've seen to appear on  
the net :-

Quick Batman, to the A3 colour laser printer!

Best regards

PS Now how do I add custom wallpaper in CDE again?

If you have root:

Pick the image that you would like tiled all over your background.  
Use Applications -> Image Viewer to open the file, and then save it  
as .xpm format.



         mkdir /etc/dt/backdrops
         chmod 755 /etc/dt/backdrops
         cp yourimage.xpm /etc/dt/backdrops
         chmod 755 /etc/dt/backdrops/yourimage.xpm
Log out, log back in, and it should appear in the list of backdrops  
you can pick. The image will be an available selection for all users  
on your system.



If you don't have root:

Create the .xpm file as above, then



         mkdir ~/.dt/backdrops
         cp yourimage.xpm ~/.dt/backdrops
Exit CDE, log in again, and your image will be a valid wallpaper  
selection for your id henceforth.
