A thumbnailer for Krita files (*.kra) and Open Raster files (*.ora compatible Mypaint, Gimp, Krita and Pinta) for Linux : Gnome 3.x File ( Nautilus ) , Cinnamon ( Nemo ) and other compatible GTK3 compatible file browsers ( File of Elementary OS, Nautilus fork of Ubuntu , probably even SpaceFM Gtk3 ).
[info]
**Update 2020:** I tested [the 1-1 Debian package](http://www.davidrevoy.com/XYZ/gnome-kra-ora_1-1_amd64.deb "gnome-kra-ora_1-1_amd64.deb" ) on Linux Mint 19.3 and also on Ubuntu 20.04LTS recently and it still works surprisingly. Just, don't forget to remove the hidden ".thumbnails" folder (at root of your /home/username/ folder) and killall any filebrowser launched (eg. killall nautilus). Once this is done, the thumbnails should appears.

[info] **Update:** This three brush are now installed by default in Krita 4, you probably already have them instaled in your brush list (the icon might differ just a little bit).
Also, the pack under is outdated and unmaintained: it probably won't work as designed with recent version of Krita. [Check the 'extras' category](http://www.davidrevoy.com/categorie3/) to find my most recent brushes. [/info]
**For Krita 2.9 and up**
_( Note: this brushes are now part of my brushkit 8.1 )_
### Download & Install :
* You can download directly the [mix-brushes.bundle file here ](http://www.peppercarrot.com/extras/resources/mix-brushes.zip)( in a zip, extract it after download ) or from [this folder](http://www.peppercarrot.com/extras/resources/) ([source git here](https://github.com/Deevad/deevad-krita-brushpresets/commits/master)).
* Open Krita, go to _Setting _then _Manage Resources _and then click on the _import Bundle/Ressources button_. Select the mix-brushes.bundle file on your disk ( you'll see it if _File of type_ is set to _Resource Bundles (*.bundle) _and then press _Open _button.
* Done! Close the resource manager dialog. The brush should appear in your Brush Presets docker, ready to be used.
I use this brushes more and more to paint my backgrounds ( eg. check previous artwork '[Happy Holidays](https://www.patreon.com/posts/3941802)' ).

All long strips are now split to individual 300dpi pages.
4 episodes affected in 30 languages per episode.
Over 500 files manually edited and fixed.
The renderfarm script is now adapted ( simplified ).
This was a massive work of hundreds of hours.
**Changelog :**
[Episode 1 :](http://www.peppercarrot.com/en/article234/potion-of-flight "Episode 1 :" )
**Problems:** It was a single long strip designed for web in first age of Pepper&Carrot.
- The panels are now wider and were patched to extend to the new panel size.
- The last panel takes now a full page. A starfield was added to fill the empty space.
- Three moon corrections to fit with the cosmology of Hereva.
- No more green panel border. Panels color are white to respect a standard.
[Episode 2 :](http://www.peppercarrot.com/en/article237/episode-2-rainbow-potions "Episode 2 :" )
**Problems:** It was a single long strip designed for web in first age of Pepper&Carrot.
- Drawing a new panel on page 4 was necessary to fill the page.
- A lot of panel extension painted on the top for wider panels.
- No more foggy border, back to a solid square design. ( foggy rounded panel are for flashback or dream ).
[Episode 3](http://www.peppercarrot.com/en/article241/episode-3-the-secret-ingredients "Episode 3" ):
**Problems:** Page 2 was irregularly sized.
- Page 2 first panel was extended and recolorized.
