Everytime i run caravel drod(don't know which version. i downloaded it a half year ago) my desktop wallpaper changes it's size to a relatively small size. This happens everytime i switch from fullscreen to window mode and everytime i close drod. I have to change the wallpaper and then change it back to get it back to the original size. maybe it's not a problem of drod, but i post it, maybe anyone knows a solution.

If it's half a year ago you'll have version 1.5. The other versions are only avaialable for testing, so don't worry about build numbers.

When you say small size... Do you mean a small resolution? Or that the images are all smaller? It does make a difference...

And just for the record, what Windows are you running? I've never come across this problem, so I'm intrigued.

OK forgot to specify:

I run winxp the resolution is 1280x1024 but the background image seems to be compressed to something about 640x480(i think) it's in the left upper corner of the screen. the rest is black(backgroundcolor)

Sounds like DROD is running in 640x480. Try this...

1. Right click on the shortcut you use to start DROD. Choose Properties.
2. Click the Compatibility tab.
3. Make sure the box about 640x480 is clear (no check mark).

That should sort it... if it's already clear I don't know what could be wrong.
