 Doesn't work with jpg ... only bmp filesI found this searching the web:<div class="quote"> If I set a JGP as wallpaper, Windows XP converts it to a BMP and saves it in'C:Documents and SettingsRGRLocal SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftWallpaper1.bmp' and sets that BMP as the wallpaper.The registry entries which relate to this are: 'HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopConvertedWalpaper' = JPG file'HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopOriginalWallpaper' = BMP file'HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopWallpaper' = BMP file </div>

 This doesn't work, it gives me an error that says "Function 'systemparametersinfo' not found.".

 zortzblatz create a decls file with the

Code: [Select]

; Required Userlib
 .lib "user32.dll"
 SystemParametersInfo%(uAction%, uParam%, lpvParam$, fuWinIni%):"SystemParametersInfoA"
in it called user32.decls in the decls folder of blitz and it should work.

 Okay, now a window pops up titled "Change Desktop Wallpaper by Eikon". It changes size once then closes leaving the wallpaper unchanged. On the plus side it rune and compiles without error =D Any other suggestions? [/i]
