ImageVice(tm) Quick Start BoxTop Software, Inc. 101 N. Lafeyette Street Starkville, MS 39759 (v) 1-601-324-1800 (f) 1-601-324-7352 http://www.boxtopsoft.com ftp://ftp.boxtopsoft.com/pub info@boxtopsoft.com Installation: Once you have properly installed ImageVice(tm) it will appear under the Filters->BoxTop Web Tools->ImageVice... menus in Photoshop. Other applications may locate filter plug-ins under an "Effects" menu, but in all applications ImageVice(tm) will be under the "BoxTop Web Tools" sub-menu. If you have properly installed ImageVice(tm) and it does not appear in your applications menus anywhere, then your application does not support Adobe Photoshop 3.0 or greater API plug-in filters. Getting Started: After you apply the ImageVice(tm) filter, you should convert to indexed mode in Photoshop using the "Exact" option that will activate in Photoshop's mode change dialog by default without any change to the default settings in the mode change dialog, or save in GIF format directly using PhotoGIF Filter(tm), which handles the exact palette generation needed after using ImageVice(tm) automatically. Documentation: For more detailed information -- and this is actually highly suggested even for the old pros -- visit the on-line ImageVice Workshop at the BoxTop Software, Inc. web site, which gives exhaustive documentation and step-by-step tutorial to get the most out of ImageVice. You should also read the advanced 'Tips & Tricks' articles on ImageVice optimization as well. The URL is: http://www.boxtopsoft.com Then just follow the Workshop or Tips & Tricks links. About the demo: The ImageVice(tm) 1.1 demo is fully functional and non-expiring. There are no limitations on features or how it may be used for evaluation purposes. Until ImageVice(tm) 1.1 has been purchased and registered a splash screen and registration information dialog will be shown each time you use the ImageVice(tm) 1.1 plug-in. No extra dialogs are shown once ImageVice(tm) 1.1 has been purchased and registered - then the vain splash screen will be banished to the Apple -> About Plug-in... -> ImageVice(tm) 1.1 menu. If you use ImageVice(tm) 1.1 for more than 30 days or on more than 100 images, whichever comes first, a delay time will be added before it executes; however, function will not be limited or terminated after the end of the grace period for evaluation - just delayed.
