If you're handy with a graphics program, or at least able to use one, this may be of help. It may have more than you need, but the first chapter will get you started.

The desktop image is usually 1124x512 px. The center image is often an transparent portion overlay. The main part of the image is 610 in width, and then the overlay is 514 in width.
Shouldn't be too hard to make an extension to change it, but need the graphic first.Time Zone: EST/GMT -5

I've had challenges in making extensions, but I think I can manage this. Send away.

The "middle rect" is the desktop, the "right rect" is the bar on the right hand side of the screen that the story/token icons sit on. If you want a "generic" color, you can add a background color to a small section and reduce the values to fit that area.
Based on your results, I would say that it is picking up the deleted area and replacing it with black. You cannot have a transparent background. If I remember correctly when I started messing with backgrounds, when I ran into issues with the area being too small it would turn up black.
Hope this helps.

If i want to inbind this picture, without any other mids and rights, its not enough to change name in "desktop" and pull it in "ruleset/cthulhu/frames".
Can i manage this or it is not possible to change this like i want to

You could manage this picture, but it could not be the middle or the right, it would have to be the decal.
The middle and right must be some tileable.Time Zone: EST/GMT -5
