The backdrop does the same thing on my computer at home ever since I
downloaded the first 1.1 version. I don't have internet at home and used
the same downloaded Revolution file at home as I did at my computer at work,
on which the background's behavoirs work just fine. what type and model of
computer do you have? Mine at home is an old PowerMac G3 desktop with a
300Mhz processor.
