Feel free to email me with a ZIP file.
Generally, the best thing to do is post it on your own server (web site or
FTP) and include a URL in your message.

I like the idea.  It won't take up too much CPU power, either.  Better yet,
make it a POV-Win plugin, so it can access the current scan line/percent
done information and include that!

Instead of "wallpaper", how about a Active Desktop component that would
display the current work in progress?
