Re: Where is the Library? i'd like to back it up

Would that be possible, say if i reformatted the computer, then launch 2.3b12, then i could overwrite the stock library with my ...

Re: import 2d picture for wall hanging, etc?

haha, yes, that does work, but you are kinda stuck with the proportions of your img. And you can change the size (in proportion) but, its a bit of a chore. It would be nice to be able to resize like you can with the included pictures that come with sh3d.
