I noticed today that the brushed aluminium background I had assigned to my grids appearance no longer work in MGP 1.6.6.  
This appearance was working for the first time a month or so ago in the previous version. But now, the only Grid Backround Image that will display are the ones located in the Metagrid pro folder.  
None of the images in Hi Tech Shapes/Textures/Images or Brushed Aluminum Textures will display on my grid.

Hi Ben,

Have you bought the Image packs before - I assume you are on legacy Premium, right?

No I had not purchased them…didn’t know they were an add on.  
Yes, I purchased when MGP first came out.  
OK…so that’s why they aren’t working?

So do I simply have to download them from someplace?  
Or Do I go and pay $99?  
Thank you
