If you're using recent windowmaker, I think you can get rid of the window 
decorations by the following steps.

1: run mgp with -g option
2: press w key (window decorations should disappear and you will get 
   full-screen slide)
3: if you want to have the window decorations and the original size of slide, 
   press w key again.
