Where can i find this WB Picture !?

When i was at Breakpoint in 2007, i made a few recordings of the Amiga Demo Competition entries, and at the start of it there was a brilliant little introduction from the guys there and at the end of that Introduction, just as the first demo is about to start, it flicks back to the Workbench screen with an image of girl with something in her mouth.

I will provide the link to the video i made, but the picture shows up at the very end of the video, so you will need to pause it to have a good look, its very brief!. If someone could tell me where i can find this picture to use on my own Workbench, then i would be really really grateful guys!..

The backdrop looks like a comic book scan adjusted to the MagicWB colour scheme. It may be in one of the many MagicWB icon and wallpaper archives on Aminet.

Indeed, there are lots of utils on windows that reads .iff pics and I swear by irfanview (even if it does have butt ugly icons).

I read you.
The good thing with irfanview is the good thing about μtorrent: the forgotten (in modern computers) art of making COMPACT LIGHTWEIGHT AND CODE EFFECTIVE software.

Somebody must tell the guy about the icons indeed. Or even better fix him a nice set of icons and send him...

Actually, I only had to look through a couple of my Amiga CDs. I remember using a backdrop from that collection all those years ago, that's why it stuck. It came on Aminet 22 which I bought in 98.

I'm more into brunettes but hey...
