Once you have your background image file, it's really tough,
you click on the existing background and open your file.

The graphics editing is done with other programs. The best are
those that can do "layers", like Adobe Photoshop or the free Gimp2.
I use Gimp2. As my artistic ability is somewhat limited, I most often
use it to modify artwork I find on the net. But for a still background
you can use any: 24bit BMP, JPG or PSD file. So you can use the
"Paint" program that comes with windows if you want.
The recommended size of background images is 768x576 pixel.
Any where near that size is OK, TDA will make it fit. If it is too small
though, the quality of the stretched image could suffer. 720x480
Wallpaper images work great.

Try googling "ken maltby tda tricks" and "ken maltby mark burns
tda tricks". Try both net and groups.
