Below is what I see in KDE under SL 6.1 Alpha2. I set the screen size
to 1280x1024 (1.25ratio) for testing.
This is what it looked like. The 'nucleus' part is out of sight
(actually both sides are cut off).

If I scale it to see the whole image:
http://linux.toracat.org/SL/misc/background/125desktop-scaled.jpg
it becomes elongated vertically. If I scale it in the proportional
mode, then I get blank space at the top and the bottom.
With (most of) the images available from the menu, I did not see this
behavior. So, the 'XML-based voodoo' seems to be working. Any idea
how to get it to work for the SL image?
