MAGICWB ICONS
» 4 «
Released 18-12-94
_____________________________________________________________________
INTRODUCTION
Merry X-Mas & Happy New Year ALL Amiga users all over the world!
This is the 4rd MagicWB (
© Martin Huttenloher
) package from me,
Jan-Tore Eliassen
. After package #3, which was HUGE, I decided not to
release another elephant package again, and also not to wait that
long before releasing it. So this little package with icons is
released less than 3 weeks after the last one. I think it will be
a couple of months before another iconpack comes from me.
:-(
Anyway, hope you like'em!
;-)
_____________________________________________________________________
CONTENTS
This package contains over 60 MagicWB icons. On some of the icons
I've only updated the background to standard MagicWB2 colors, because
they had that ugly yellow/brown colors which I don't like at all,
except on Prefs icons!
Others I have only updated to the standard MagicWB2 template size.
If all icons have the same size the Workbench wouldn't look that
mezzy. One thing that NewIcons bring to your WB is a
clean look
,
because every icon have the same size.
A few of the icons have it's inspiration from the NewIcons package.
I've have stolen lot of ideas and stuff from most of the MagicWB
packages out there, as if that was something new!
The def_icons are the same size as the one in the
RomIcons 4
pack,
so you can use mine and Romans def_icons together with a DefIcon
utility. They're a perfect match!
;-)

INSTALLATION
Click on
'ClickForColors'
for the
NEW
MagicWB v2.0 palette.
Use a icon update program, MUI_IconUpdate or IconUpdate, which
preserves the tooltypes and position of the icon, to update your old
icons. You can also use SwazInfo (

).
_____________________________________________________________________
NOTE
All the icons in this package are in 8 colors, 3 bitplanes.
MagicWB v2.0 have a demon that controls the icons (and patterns) so
that they have the correct colors. So if you use more than 8 colors
on your WB, the icon colors will not be fucked up! This makes
MagicWB v2.0 nearly as fast as the standard 4 color icons.
For you
not
using the MagicWB 2 demon
and
use more than 8 colors, can
fix the ugly looking icons by using the icon utility IconDepth v1.4
(

). But this will make the icons bigger (KB wise!)
and the Workbench much slower. So register
NOW!
MagicWB look best for screens sized 640x512 and above. Don't use it
with 640x256 screens, it's FUCKING ugly!
Icons are meant to replace the text in a GUI-Graphic User Interface,
so avoid using large fonts on the WB. XHelvetica 9 or 11 are big
enough for the WB.
