- Short: Brushes collection from Linux
- Author: Various (unknown)

- DESCRIPTION:
- ------------
-
- This archive contains a number of brushes that I have downloaded from
- various Linux sites and converted to IFF ILBMs for use with Directory
- Opus. The quality of these brushes is generally very good (with the
- odd dire one thrown in for good luck!).
-
- They will mainly be of use to graphic card owners running high
- resolution, high colour (e.g. 16/24 bit) screens, as the brushes are
- large (48x48 pixels mostly) are colourfull (most brushes use 50 to 150
- colours and they do not share a common palette).
-
- I also converted them to NewIcons, for use as drive icons, but I have
- not included them due to space requirements. To convert them yourself
- I recommend the DT2NI program, available on Aminet. I set up a Dopus
- menu item to convert the entire directory at once. :)
-
- If anyone can't manage this themselves (shame on you!) then e-mail me
- and I'll consider uploading a separate archive of the icons.
-
- I have found that these icons look particularly good when used on a
- Dopus Start Button (similar to the Windows start button). I have
- included a snapshot of my workbench screen with the start menu
- activated to show you how sexy your workbench could look.
-
- BUY DIRECTORY OPUS MAGELLAN! You'll wonder how you ever lived without
- it (for example - I created a menu item to convert all of the brushes
- to NewIcons in about 30 seconds then simply selected the names and
- then the menu item. click... Done!)
-
- COPYRIGHT
- ---------
-
- As far as I know all of these brushes are freeware, obtained from a number
- of different sites. I do not claim ownership of them in any way, I
- have simply collected and converted them for my own use.
-
-
- Hope that they are of some use (I would welcome any e-mail).
