Steampunk Kitty Tut #3 this week

 

开云体育

When playing with this one, I learned that there is a LOT more to I.C. Net Software-Filters Unlimited 2.0? as this tut required a BKG filter that wasn't part of 2.0.? I have a half hour search finding and loading those into 2.0 and it worked great once I found it.? I'm glad I tried the tut, it taught me something I hadn't experienced.

Thanks for looking, This kitty is fun and colorful.? Goodies attached for your use.
