- I did all of these by hand, myself.
-
- Hope you like them.
-
- Icons are sort of a hobby of mine, and I would be interested
- in hearing from you if you have some neat icons of your own.
- I can't charge money for them, for obvious reasons, although
- you're free to send $ if you wish. Instead I'm using this as a
- little advertisement for myself, being an artist and a
- cartoonist, you see. If you are in need of custom icons for
- your programs, or artwork for whatever reason, feel free to
- contact me and we can work something out.

- 1. You really need system 7
- 2. Do a "Get Info" (File menu) on the original icon file
- 3. Click on the icon in the window; choose "Copy" (Edit menu)
- 3a. You ought to have system 7
- 4. Close the window, then "Get Info" on destination file/disk
- 5. Click on the icon, choose "Paste" (Edit menu)
- 5a. This only works in system 7

- The most reliable way of getting in touch with me (since my
- address changes fairly often) is by my P.O. box. (Agh! The return
- of postcardware!)
- Send questions, comments, job offers to:

- Version 1.0:
- First distribution of "Colossal Icons". Much easier to add icons
- and send out in "versions" than to keep track of little additions.
- Lots o' folders so that icons don't hog all your RAM. Besides, it
- keeps 'em easy to group together! BTW, cartoon artists generally
- don't adhere to the Apple Icon colors, so several icons rely on some
- of the standard 256 for certain spots. I try to keep this to a minimum.
-
- Version 1.1: Added several new icons
-
- Version 1.2:
- Added more icons, and a little "treat" for those with the original icon
- files. Note that all the toon icons are now application files. Launching
- them is futile. HOWEVER on these you can use balloon help. 'Nuff said.
- Also modified some older icons that really didn't look like what they were
- supposed to (esp. Stimpy, Ernie)
- enjoy!!!
