Hi,
I have a gif that I want to setup as the "background" of a JDesktopPane object. Any ideas how to do this?

First you have to create your own DesktopPane, which extends from JDesktopPane. Then you have to overwrite the paintComponent(Graphis g) method, where you draw your image.
One year ago I found a JavaAPI called KIWI. This API was free to use. You will find it here.
I think, they provide the same functionality, which you want to have, but if you want to do it by your own, you will find a good example.
Hope that helps
Rene
