Where this directory goes depends on what value was set for "<code>DATA_PREFIX</code>" when Tux Paint was built. See 'Install documentation' for details. </p>
<p>
By default, though, the directory is: <blockquote>
<code>/usr/local/share/tuxpaint/</code>
</blockquote>
<nobr><code style='background: #EEE;'>/usr/local/share/tuxpaint/</code></nobr> </blockquote>
</p>

If you installed from a package, it is more likely to be: <blockquote>

Tux Paint looks for a directory called '<code>data</code>' in the same directory as the executable. This is the directory that the installer used when installing Tux Paint e.g.: <blockquote>
<code style="white-space: nowrap;">C:\Program Files\TuxPaint\data</code>

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 filesystem): <blockquote>

When you upgrade to a newer version of Tux Paint, the contents of this "TuxPaint" folder will stay the same, and remain accessible by all users of Tux Paint. </p>
