- There are an additional 200+ 640x480 / 256 color PCX images, adding up to a
- total of 1700+ images. They are organized by resolution and format, in
- different directories off the root of the CD. The main directories are:
-
- * 6X4IMAGE - 640x480 / 256 color FracTools files
- * 1X7IMAGE - 1024x768 / 256 color FracTools files
