- Mah Jongg Tile Set Description
-
- Tile Set Name: KIDPIX.TIL
- Subject: Stamps in KIDPIX program by Broderbund
- Adapted by: Marie Brewer
-
- Description:
-
- The wonderful KIDPIX program from Broderbund, credited on the box as
- having been created by Craig Hickman, contains a utility whereby a
- child can "stamp" small pictures on the screen, much as she/he can do
- with a conventional rubber stamp. The stamps are the ideal size to
- convert to tiles for Mah Jongg play. The artwork doesn't transfer in
- the original colors, so a good bit of adaptation was required, both in
- the color revision and in revising the tiles so that there would be
- enough of them to comprise "sets".
-
- No permission was sought for their use, but I do intend to send a set
- to Broderbund/Craig Hickman to show them a new (I think!) use for
- their creative program. My thanks to them and to Nels Anderson,
- creator of Mah Jongg 3.51 and of TileMaker, used to design these
- tiles.
