The FastIcon has released a set of icons from their artist, Dirceu Veiga: "Sweet System", which contains 12 freeware icons.

The collection was inspired by the sweet look and feel of baby rooms artwork and is available for Mac OS X, Windows XP and Linux. (For MorphOS, simply rename #?.png from the Linux version to #?.info...)

The MorphOS Team is happy to announce a new registration website for its user
support services, namely mailing lists and the MorphOS download portal.

If you are a MorphOS user and did not receive the download instructions for the
MorphOS 1.4.4 update, you are not subscribed to the MorphOS [info] mailing list.
We suggest to visit http://support.morphos-team.net/ and follow the instructions.
Please note that once the registration process is complete, you are not
automatically subscribed to the mailing lists. This requires additional steps.

There are currently two mailing lists available. One is open for general
discussion of MorphOS-related matters and another is specifically used to post
MorphOS announcements and user information. Instructions on how to join either
or both of these lists will be mailed to you during your registration.

To all MorphOS users

Celebrating the 6th anniversary of MorphOS, version 1.4.4 is now available. This is hopefully the last bugfix update before the next full release, and solves many bugs and problems with the previous releases.

Please note that the update is currently only available to users who have registered themselves. Due to circumstances beyond our control, the MorphOS support site is currently down. Users who have not yet registered will have to wait for a few days while a new registration system is prepared. A new announcement will be made when it is ready. The support mailinglist will also be restored shortly, please have some patience.

Fixes in the 1.4.4 release include support for large harddrives, ability to read DVDs in their entirety, important bug fixes to SFS, audio, 68k emulation, network card drivers and many other things. See releasenotes for more information.

<Quest for all Amiga fans on either the red or blue side!>

In a high stone tower on Elerion, far away from the world known to us, there have been recent events of which you shall be told. Agannazar, high archmage of the First Ones, waved his hand over the crystal ball, and the confusing veils of mystery that shrouded the view lifted. In the candle light, Agannazar suddenly understood things that had puzzled him before. Next to him stood Landon, an old sovereign from the island of Exevor, the northmost island of the old realms and look at him questioningly.
