Thanks Rich but I'm still not comprehending the information.

HI Bill

if I read Rich right what he saying is that the brushes and textures in question - ie those used by the magix live effect filter[s], not the ones xtreme has always had - are in bmp format and greyscale file based, which is useful to know as you can make your own....

darn - pressed submit instead of preview again

live effect>art filter> painting

for 'texture' read 'paper' - ok done sorry for the sequification

Thanks Steve that helps. I'm not sure if my memory is wonky due to age or if I've had a mini-stroke.

its fine we all get like that - I am slipping way out of practice these days with the technical PC stuff, except where it is directly relevant to my own machines...

Remembers me the great fun I had many years ago with my first Corel Photopaint on a 486 and a third party painting plugin bundled with it. I discovered how to add custom brushes but at this time that was completely undocumented and some of them even severely crashed Windows 3.11. Forgotten heroic times !!!

kindly,
