| HyperMover.BGs HyperCard IIGS stack |
Apple's HyperMover stack used a background of alternating images of Mac and Apple IIGS computers. The image in the stack was incomplete however, so I have created HyperMover.BGs - a HCGS stack that allows the HyperMover background to rebuilt a stage at a time. Each card in the stack shows the progression and can be captured as an SHR that can be used as a IIGS 640 mode desktop background (I use the Backdrop NDA).
