Correct in two difrent ways.
First of all out of PhotoShop you can now save IFF24 images, or any
Pict2. writ that onto a IBM formated High Density Floppy, using AFE or
equivilant. Bring that into the A4000 Toaster, (make sure the cross dos
PC0: is in your Devs drawer, or runing). Then if it is in IFF24, go into
Toaster Paint or LW3D and use load RGB, to bring it in. If you saved in a
PICT2, basicly you bring hte disk in the same way, then you run Toaster
Paint, go to a shell and use the READPICT program that comes with the
Toaster, to read the Pict file into Toaste paint.
This works very well, the only drawback is the time it takes to write
then read from a floppy, if you need to do alot of images some typeof
networking would be best.
One warning, if the image is going to be displayed in one of the Toaster
DV's the Image needs to be 752×480, and you will have to adjust aspect to
make it look right for video (this can be done in PhotoShop).
