I started this project with the intention of producing a commercial CD-ROM containing a whole host of extra features including full-blown Animation support and core program changes. Due to time restrictions I have to admit defeat on this score and so I am releasing what I have done so far free of charge in case they should be of use to any genics users out there.
Some of the work (such as the PCD loader and Fractal effect) were part completed by me at Almathera before the company went bankrupt in 1997. I have since completed these changes and they are now installed on your computer! Other work (RAW gio bugs, colcount, etc.) were written out of a personal need for those features in photogenics. Believe me it's a lot easier to write simple effects for genics than it is to try and find seperate utilities on aminet these days ;)
At any rate I hope this little collection of add-ons is of use to you. Whilst I have released this free of charge I don't think that a contribution to the Ben Matthew beer fund would be too much to ask for all the work I have put in. If you wish to make a donation (which will probably inspire me to continue with the project) send cash, cheques, ales (!), to:-
Ben Matthew,

Like a lot of "guiltware"; whether I continue this project or not is up to you.
