Deneba artWORKS 1.0.1. is a classic Paint and Drawing program produced
by [Deneba Systems][1], a company perhaps more well known for the DTP
application "Canvas".
* DL #1: The above download is not a disk copy; it has been
separated as a single item install, from the bundled "[The Campus
Software Set for Macintosh][2]". This download contains a self
expanding archive in a MacBinary II wrapper and is best unwrapped
using StuffIt version 2 or newer, on your intended classic Mac
platform, before use.
* DL #2: Patch to fix artWORKS' date expiration (see below). This
patch is also included with download #1, but is included here for
anyone who may have previously installed artWORKS from the Campus
Software Set.
* DL #3: Japanese Demo version of artWORKS from MacUser MACBIN #5
(1994-04).
See Also: [Deneba UltraPaint][3] for an earlier similar art program by
Deneba Systems.

Time Bombed: The artWORKS program expired on August 31, 2004, due to
(some say) a programming error by Deneba. This same time-bomb affects
other Deneba products of the period, such as [Deneba Canvas v3.5][10].
However, there is a cure: A [simple ResEdit hack][11] which will allow
you to run artWorks [until at least 2038][12]...
* Here is the ResEdit fix:
1. Run [ResEdit][13] or [Resorcerer][14] and open the artWORKS 1.0.1 application (resource fork).
2. Locate the "toly" resource with an ID of 1011 and open it.
3. You should see this hexadecimal value: 07D4 0008 001F 000C 001E 0000 0001
4. Change it to: 07F7 000C 001F 000C 001E 0000 0001
5. Quit ResEdit or Resorcerer, saving your changes when prompted to.
* BUT - if ResEdit isn't for you...
* A patch made using [ResCompare][15] has been created and does it all for you. It's been included in with DL#1 and also separately as DL #2 above. You don't need to download #2 unless you've installed artWORKS from the Campus Software Set, in which case you may need this patch included in the 2nd DL.
