- Essence is not a pkg of brush maps. It's a pkg of procedural textures,
- like the few that Impulse gives you with Imagine. i.e.: little tiny
- "programs" that take up virtually no memory to apply to your objects.
- They offer virtually unlimited parameters for each textures too. And
- they are the ONLY set of 3rd party Imagine textures that are NOT
- brushmaps or pictures.
