To get to the bitmaps, you will need a little program called PE Explorer,
which is available at www.heaventools.com .
It has a 30 day time limit, but is a much more smooth program to work with
than the one mention in previous posts (the problem being that the 8 bit
bitmaps would retain the original palette, so if you changed the color
scheme drastically, it made things look really off). Once you have the PE
Explorer, you can go into the Paris.exe file (make sure you work on a copy
of the original file, rather than the original itself) and browse around for
the bitmaps. Simply save them, work on them, then replace them. It
actually really cool once you get something completed - I just don't have
time to presently. If you have any questions, feel free to give me a shout.
Stephen
P.S. Live trace in Illustrator CS2 is a GREAT thing.

s.
Having said that, recording orchestras will show you quickly that
even a little change can make a difference.
I like Cardas, Zaolla, and Mogami mic cables, but I would look at the
whole signal chain before buying an expensive cable. (the Mogami
W2549 is not expensive and is very good, the others are good but
very expensive)
Where can I find good Greek food in Los Angeles??

Thanks for recommendation...
Greek food in LA could be found in my uncle's house who lives in LA...
But I guess after so many years and married to a Chinese probably he is
eating hot dogs and cats...
I can also send some cooked ones from here.
Cheers,
