I have been using a PD program BrushIcon (not Brush2Icon) to
convert DPaint brushes to Icons.  Since I have DPaint III the
conversion no longer works.  I can load a DPaint III brush into
DPaint II, re-save it and get a convertable brush.

Does anybody know of a Brush to Icon program that will work with
DPaint III brushes?  I have Brush2Icon and it works with DPaint
III but only produces tool icons.
