What is it???? Graphic Designer is a front end for Toasterpaint. It
allows just about anyone to make outstanding broadcast quality
graphics.
What do I need to run it????? To run Graphic Designer, you are
required to have a Video Toaster equipped Amiga with 2 Megs of chip
(graphics) memory and 10 Megs of fast (other) memory.
How does it work????? Graphic Designer works by talking to
Toasterpaint. With Graphic Designer, you'll be creating rough
sketches that indicate what you want your final image to look like.
Graphic Designer will turn your rough sketch into a 24-bit image in
Toasterpaint. Because of this, both Graphic Designer and Toasterpaint
need to be running simultaneously.
Is it like Composite Studio????? It is very much like Composite
Studio, only better-I hope.
Do I have to pay for it?????? No, if you want to use GD Sampler with
its limited functions, you are free to do so. Registering and getting
the fully functional version is your option. However, if you want to
give GD Sampler to friends or distribute it, you can't charge anything
and you have to keep all the files together.
How do I install it?????? To install GD Sampler, you must decompress
the archive onto a floppy disk named disk1 Then click on the disk1
icon in Workbench, and run the install program.
How do I start it????? To load Graphic Designer, double-click on the
'StartGd' icon on the workbench screen.
With GD Sampler you will need to manually load and enter Toasterpaint-
which is required for Graphic Designer to function. To do this, press
and hold down the left Amiga key (on the left side of the space bar)
and tap the 'n' key or click the 'screen-to-back' button in the upper
right corner of the Graphic Designer interface. Now load the Video
Toaster by double-clicking on its icon. When the Toaster is loaded,
double-click on the button labeled 'Paint' to enter Toasterpaint.
(This point is very important and can't be stressed enough-completely
enter Toasterpaint so that the Toasterpaint interface appears on the
screen.) Once you've entered Toasterpaint, press and hold down the
left Amiga key and tap the 'm' key a couple of times to return to the
Graphic Designer interface.
