Replicating the image is only one alternative. I have quite beautiful
results with streching an image. On a 1600x1200 monitor the antialiased
image: (with k=black b=blue g=green r=red p=purple)
kkgk
bkkp
krkk
produces striking results. this works under windoze & several wms under
linux. And with plan9 I get a plain grey background. *sigh*
