In response to the growing demand for off the shelf products for desktop
Linux systems, the Graphics Muse is now offering The Graphics Muse Tools
CD, an easy to install package of plug-ins, scripts, and data for use with
the latest version of GIMP.

Houston, Texas (Feb 7, 2002) -- Michael J. Hammel, the Graphics Muse, is
pleased to announce the release of The Graphics Muse Tools CD V1.0.0, a
suite of Plug-Ins, scripts and data designed specifically for use with GIMP
1.2 and Red Hat 7.x

The Graphics Muse Tools CD includes 4 original plug-ins:  ArrowGFX,
CardGFX, TransGFX and DodgeGFX.  ArrowGFX provides easy generation of
arrow shapes.  CardGFX allows the user to position an image one or more
times in a user-configurable page, for example in business or greeting
cards.  TransGFX provides an alternative rotation tool for GIMP layers.
And DodgeGFX provides a Perl-based interface to bring out details in
dark areas of images, such as under exposed regions of photographs.

Along with these, the Graphics Muse Tools CD includes 84 plug-ins and Perl
scripts from the GIMP Registry, all compiled for use on Red Hat 7.x.  This
includes 16 programs that had not previously been ported to GIMP 1.2.
Plug-ins include:

* Digital Signature to embed artist signatures in an image.
* Water Surface, which generates water waves over existing images.
* Anamorphose, Curtain and Central Reflection, for distorting images in
  highly artist fashions.
* Kaleidescope to reflect images as in a mirrored kaleidescope.
* Forge, a sophisticated world rendering plug-in with a simple interface!
* Support for Landsat, PhotoCD, IFF-ILBM, CAD, Cineon and other file
  formats.

...and many more!

Additionally, the CD includes over 125 new brushes and 125 new patterns.

The Graphics Muse Tools CD is available for Red Hat Linux 7.x systems and
can be purchased for $12, plus shipping and any applicable sales tax, from
