Disc 3: This slideshow is a rolling show of stills from
the Cinemaware game `Rocket Ranger' released in
1988.The sequence is accompanied by some suberb
digitised music and the game itself in now way
looks as old as it now is, try this demo if you
are interested in the game.
Disc 4: Another 24 pictures getting the slideshow
treatment, most of these are pictures converted
from HAM (4096 colour) format down to standard
32 colour mode.The results of converting 4096
colour files to 32 colour files are not as bad
as you would first think, as these very good
examples show. Files: Bidonhorse,Brick,Butterfly

and have to be converted with Pixmate or similar
before it will load into Photon Paint etc.
Disc 26: This slideshow consists of 18 files of which all
are of a classical nature, ie digitised oil
paintings etc. Not my cup of tea but the artists
among you may appreciate this one. Again a
bootable disc with files that can be loaded into
other programs.
Disc 27: Roger Dean hits the Amiga in the form of this
HAM slideshow. 15 of Rogers classic paintings
are captured in the Amigas 4096 colour mode,
again digitised with DigiView. People unfamiliar
with Roger Deans work may be interested to learn
that he is the artist responsible for much of
PSYGNOSIS`s artwork. (Inc Barbarian,Terrorpods).
Disc 32: This disc contains possibly the highest quality
digitised graphics yet, all digitised with
Digiview by NEWTEK (the manufacturers)
themselves. All load into any standard HAM
package and are unbelievable when first seen.
Includes a brilliant table of food (?!) and a
couple of interlaced pictures so crisp and clear
that lead you to think its not an Amiga you're
using! True photographic quality - plus some
music.
Disc 40: A special full screen slideshow (ALL of the
screen inc the border!) including 13 excellent
pictures of which all are HAM mode again.

kids it.
Disc 90: The Mayfair Beauties show. A disc full of
Girlies in black and white digitised splendor.

more women adorning your amiga screen.
Sexist? Yes. Controversial? Yes. Popular? Yes.

of Mrs Music in her usual poses. Great for fans

vampires amongst other things. Nicely done. Taken
from Compuserve in the states. The story is
called Jack Frost.
Disc 264: Slideshow 23 consists of some superb artwork by
Ian Harling Tudor Cottage, Biplane, glass and 4
screens from `The Long Patrol` which is a game
based around Vietnam and the graphics are really
nice, atmospheric and lets hope the game lives
up to the graphics. Ian is also available for
commercial work. Also on the slideshow apart from
a very nice sample are some hi-quality interlaced
HAM digitised shots of NASA space operations,
the shuttle etc.
Disc 291: Utopia 1 (Cert X) First X-Rated show from a

Disc 313: 7 Superbly digitised Boris Vallejo pictures,

have ever seen. The quality is absolutely superb,
and so is the artwork. If you like this sort of
thing, go out and buy a Boris Vallejo book
because they are superb! Art:Boris B, Bride,
Jade, Spider,Touch, Wonder, Jungle. Some of the
artwork is a bit risque as it is Fantasy art.

artwork.. Henk Van Der Graaf is a Dutchman living
in Australia who spends up to 5weeks at a time

an equivalent digitised image!! Check out the 5
Graaf pictures on this disc, the Joker from Rico
Holmes and the incredible cover to this Newsflash.
