Hello netlanders,

after playing with Deluxe Paint II Enhanced Version 2.2 I'm a little
bit disappointed or maybe I'm just doing something wrong.

After converting a GIF Image (640x480 256 colors) to the DeluxePaint
lbm format I have discovered that when I choose a particluar cutting I 
can't make the part much bigger. Deluxe will only allow a small enlargement
of my cutting. E.g. I can't double the cutting because DeluxePaint comes
with an error messages that I have not enough memory.

I have a 386SX with 4MB RAM using 386MaxMem.
I have tried 3 MB expanded, 3 MB extended and 1,5 expanded/1,5 extended,
but DeluxePaint keeps on telling me that he hasn't enough memory.

Doesn't DeluxePaint generally take advantage of extra memory.

If not, what other Paint Prgs could read/convert GIF format and uses 
my 4 MB RAM?

Please relpy via mail,

	Axel
