Hi Dale,

Can these effects not be installed in the same way as other Gimp filters, ie. in the plugins directory?

If not, then a likely person to help you with this would be CatDude....he's very tuned in to most things Puppy and graphics in particular. He's contributed several tutorials to the forums as well.

I would also like to suggest that you post questions like this one in the "Users" section of the forums, where you're more likely to receive a faster response. This section is actually for suggestions on what features, bufixes etc. might be required in future versions of Puppy :wink:

Hope you find this helpful,
russoodle

EDIT: hang about there, Dale, there might be a good package available for d/l soon, if we're lucky..

OK....you don't mention what version of Puppy you're running, but Ttuuxxx put together a great package a while back, which CatDude has his paws on and has uploaded to my server:

Enter username: puppy and pawsword: linux

Note: check CatDude's readme file first, so you might know whether or not this package will be compatible with what you're using.

Hi Dale,

I don't know if it will work on later versions than mentioned in CatDude's readme, but after you've tried it, would you please let us know how it goes?
You're the guinea-pig :wink:

Thanks.
