	I have a system-wide execdutive logical name called

			DECW$LOGIN_BACKGROUND

	that points to this command file.  It replaces the normal "digital"
logo with a scanned GIF image of a Nagel print:

	$ xloadimage :== $ sys$system:xloadimage
	$ xloadimage	-quiet -	! I don't wanna here hear about it
			-onroot -	! Put it on the root
			-dither -	! B&W (I don't have color, okay?)
			-xzoom 160 -	! Zoom the X axis and...
			-yzoom 216 -	! the Y axis to fill the screen
			img$lib:[art]nagel016.gif
	$ exit

	Please do not ask for copies of XLOADIMAGE or GIF files, as my system
doesn't really have access to sufficient bandwidth to play mailserver...
XLOADIMAGE is available by anon-ftp from somewhere, and I'm sure there are 
many local BBS's that have some interesting(?) GIF you can download.
