won't be covered by the background image.

3. Stretched: make the selected clip art image your background image, and stretch it to cover
the entire label. This will make the selected image cover the label exactly, but it could change
the image's aspect ratio. If the image's aspect ratio is dramatically different from the label's
aspect ratio, this option could make the image appear stretched or scrunched.

4. Tiled: make the selected clip art image your background image, but instead of stretching it,
tile it to cover the label.

Add to Label: add a copy of the clip art image to your label's foreground. This has the same
effect as clicking on a clip art thumbnail and dragging it onto a label.

Show Full Size: pop up a window that displays the selected clip art image at its actual size.
You can't edit the image or take any other useful actions with this window. It's just there so you
can take a closer look at it.

Set as Wallpaper: Lets you set the selected clip art image as your Windows desktop
wallpaper. It has nothing to do with creating labels. It pops up a submenu with these four
options:

1. Tiled: Sets the clip art image as tiled wallpaper.

2. Centered: Sets the clip art image as centered wallpaper.

3. Stretched: Sets the clip art image as stretched wallpaper.

4. Stretched without Changing Aspect Ratio: Sets the clip art image as stretched wallpaper
without changing the image's aspect ratio. This means that the image won't get funhouse
mirrorified if it's not the same aspect ratio as your Windows desktop, but it may leave a blank
vertical or horizontal band on the desktop.

If you try to set as your Windows wallpaper an image of a type that Windows can't
automatically set as wallpaper, or it needs to be stretched in some way that Windows can't
handle automatically, the program will save the image in the correct size and format as a file
called wallpaper.bmp in your My Documents folder and tell Windows to set this new file as
your wallpaper.

Remove from list: Removes the selected clip art image from the thumbnails list. It doesn't
delete or modify the actual clip art image's file in any way.

Rename file: Lets you change the clip art image's file name. This will affect any other
programs that expect to find the image under its old file name.

Delete file: Deletes the actual clip art image file. Use this option with caution!


Stuff You Can Do to a Clip Art Image That You've Added to a Label:

(We're assuming you didn't add your clip art image to a label as the label background. If that's
what you've done, check out Editing Background Images in the Backgrounds section instead.)
