   MagicWB is a collection of icons and backdrops that conform to a single 8
color palette intended to improve the look of the Workbench.  In the shareware
MagicWB 2.0 package, there are a couple of programs, one to lock the Workbench
colors so the icons look right, and another to support Workbench backdrops
under AmigaOS 2.x.
   If you're looking to improve the look of the Workbench, you should check
out NewIcons, in addition to MagicWB.  There's also a program on Aminet called
MWB2NI which can convert MagicWB icons into NewIcon images, so they look right
without the need to run the palette locking program.
