Decor won't set wallpaper

I have an SE/30 running 7.5.5. I installed QuickTime 4.0.3, and the OS can now open image formats like JPG and BMP. However, I installed Decor and while it can render a preview of the selected image, the wallpaper doesn't actually set.

The extension is loaded (icon shows up when the OS is booting). Any ideas on what might be wrong?

It doesn't require a PICT image like BackSplashII does?

No idea...don't have any documentation for it. What should I use to convert images to PICT?

I've heard good results using GraphicConverter but I have been using Photoshop v1.0 or v6.0.

Well, I tried using Photoshop and a really simple image, and it still isn't working.

The same version of Decor (from Macintosh Garden) and a bare System 7.5.5 (not much installed besides the OS) in Basilisk II works fine with JPEGs. I'm thinking it's got something to do with the SE/30...
