stunning graphical images, whether
20 or 3D, you will know what a
f time-consuming task it is drawing natural
y o ulooking r images such as clouds, rock, water
f a v etc. o
u r i t Thanks to The Soft Alternative, Amiga
e Computmg has supplied 19 superb, photo-

realistic images taken from a variety of subjects.

Using these images with your favourite
graphic applications, you can breath new life
into your designs, creating realistic maws in

The textures have been compressed in
a Jpeg format so that they can fit onto our
t i CoverDisk. Therefore you will need a
n g suitable Jpeg viewer to view them.
As they are in 24-bit format, non AGA
owners will need to have a 24-bit card to
view them. However, we have also supplied
a superb program called HAMLabPlus on
CoverDisk 2 which you can use to view the
images and change them into a format your
applications can load,
Just follow the instruction given for
HAMLabPlus to see how you can use your
textures.
We have supplied a variety of images
encompassing natural elements, as we
believe these are the most difficult to emulate.
These include clouds, water, rock,
sand, space and landscapes.
The textures are primarily of use to those
interested in 3D rendering, but they work just
as well as backdrops or brushes in Deluxe
Paint, Brilliance, Personal Paint and other
20 applications.
So that we could fit so many of these textures
on the disk, they have been cornpressed
with a greater ratio than that of the
original images. So, if you decide to upgrade
to the full package, you can expect to
receive images of a higher quality than the
ones supplied here.
The image bank
This box demonstrates
all the images supplied
on our CoverDisk. If you
cannot view the images
on your Amiga, choose
the ones you wish to use
from here and then load
them into HAMIabPlus to
be converted. This will
save you having to load
each one in order to see
what they look like.
