Mac OS X
Tux Paint stores files in your account's "Libraries" folder, under
"Preferences", e.g.:
Tux Paint stores its data files inside the "Tux Paint" icon (which
is actually a special kind of folder on Mac OS X). The following
steps explain how to get to the folders within:
/Users/(user name)/Library/Preferences/
1. Bring up a 'context' menu by holding the [Control] key and
clicking the Tux Paint icon the in Finder. (If you have a
mouse with more than one button, you can simply right-click
the icon.)
2. Select "Show Contents" from the menu that appears. A new
Finder window will appear with a folder inside called
"Contents."
3. Open the "Contents" folder and open the "Resources" folder
found inside.
4. There, you will find the "starters", "stamps" and "brushes"
folders. Adding new content to these folders will make the
content available to any user that launches this copy (icon)
of Tux Paint.
Note: If you install a newer version of Tux Paint (by replacing
its icon), you will lose changes made by following the
instructions above, so keep backups of your new content (stamps,
brushes, etc.).
Tux Paint also looks for files in a "TuxPaint" folder that you can
place in your system's "Application Support" folder (found under
"Library" at the root of your hard disk):
/Library/Application Support/TuxPaint/
It also looks for files in the user's "Preferences" folder, e.g.:
/Users/(user name)/Library/Preferences/TuxPaint/brushes/
