    Hello Folks,

    I need a little bit of advice/help on the following problem:
    I put a small jpg (24kb) as a background/screensaver on my Leopard desktop, and the result is it's always blownup to fill the whole screen.
    I don't see any options to have it shown in the original size.

    I didn't have this problem under Tiger - the jpg on the desktop background was shown in the same size as the original.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance++:confused:

    On the place where you can choose your wallpaper you can also choose the option of how it will be displayed...

    I think the option you want to choose is "Center".

    Just to be sure, you've tried System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Desktop > Center (from the pull down menu)?

    Hi emptyCup + sirxavier

    sorry, I didn't mention that I tried all those options - System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Desktop > Center - . The pic still fills the whole screen out, of course way too big and 'garbled' - too big a pic for those few pixels...

    Cheers++
