EMI has released a Christmas compilation album called "It's Christmas". Kate's December Will Be Magic Again was the only track that caught my attention. Having the original single I didn't buy it, yet. December issue of VOX has a full page ad of This Woman's Work boxed set. This was the first time I saw the new KT symbol. It looks better than I could imagine. I hope I'll be able to buy it one of these days. There's also back catalogue ads of Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance. >Really-From: CSDMLESBIREL%VAX.LIVERPOOL-POLY.AC.UK@mitvma.mit.edu > >Finally a thank you to anyone who has dumped gif's on Gaffa I started pulling >them down and they are great.However I've been using a program called >xloadimage to view them on a VAXstation running DECWindows.The -onroot which >should display the gif as the background picture doesn't work due the way DEC >have got their window tree organised.The root window isn't actually the >background window,the background window is a psuedo-root.Can anyone help me as >to how to display the gifs as the background please ?

I can't help you with X Windows, but I made a Windows 3 background from one of the Gaffa gifs (This Woman's Work EP cover photo). I converted it first into .pcx format and then into .bmp with Windows Paintbrush. ______ __ __ __ __ | | ) ) \ \/ / | |/ / Perttu Yli-Krekola | Look at it closely, | | \ / | _ \ py64725@korppi.tut.fi | counterfeit mostly |_| /_/ |_| \_\ | - Mary Black
