It is, but they have to be in BMP format. If I remember correctly, you just put them in the Windows directory and they'll show up in the control panel.

They will show up on the properties tab for the desktop... as Windows 3.1 doesn't have a "Control Panel" like in current windows versions.

Oooh, looks like somebody's got a better memory than me It's been toooo long since I've used 3.1

Edit: I couldn't resist.. I already had 3.1 installed under VMware on my laptop, and I fired it up.. turns out it is called "Control Panel" I guess my memory isn't as bad as I thought

Ive never used 3.1, Ive used Windows v 1 or 2 (half the programs ran on DOS anyway) on a "Tandy 1000RL"
when it was on the Hard Drive sounded like a bloody fire engine
