+hsetroot is a tool which allows you to compose wallpapers ("root pixmaps")
+for X. It has a lot of options like rendering gradients, solids, images but
+it also allows you to perform manipulations on those things, or chain them
+together. You could use one standard background image for instance, and
+using tint to make it fit your current theme. And yes, of course it is
+compatible with semi-translucent applications like aterm and xchat.
+
+At this time, hsetroot can render: gradients (multi-color with variable
+distance), solids (rectangles) and images (centered, tiled, fullscreen, or
+maximum aspect). It supports the following manipulations: tinting
+(overlaying a color mask), blurring, sharpening, flipping (horizontally,
+diagonally, vertically) it also allows you to adjust brightness, contrast
+and gamma-level. hsetroot also supports alpha-channels when rendering
+things.
