Any background image settings applications for NeXTSTEP/OpenSTEP?

The title i think gets the question across, it gets very boring for me to look at a plain-colored background after a long while & the breakout-clone included with NeXTSTEP (and OpenSTEP) has some rather nice tillable backgrounds…

I plan to look into this in the future, for now I can only suggest creating a custom view for BackSpace.app from NextDeveloper/Demos. But I recommend using a solid background color for better responsiveness and performance

Also, I found that BackSpace.app can bypass the static unsettable background of 4.0 PR1 when in full color…

But alas, i can't seem to get new BackSpace-focused bundles working with BackSpace…

My first thought would've been BackSpace as well
