This works under enlightenment, but not other window managers.  Setting the
background image is usualy window manager dependant, though you can use
some of the X utilities to do it wm independently (xset or xsetroot?  it's
been a long time).  Eterm relies on Esetroot (is that correct?) to detect
the background image.

This stems from the issue that a trnasparent Eterm isn't really transparent,
but it just shows a panning/cropped copy of the background image.  Soaks up
memory, but it's really good eye candy.
