Late Breaking PhotoSpin News as this went to Press.... For the latest news from PhotoSpin, Inc. Please visit us on the World Wide Web at... www.photospin.com Welcome to the PhotoSpin(TM) collection of Royalty Free Digital Images on CD-ROM. Please read the "InfoEngl.pdf" document in the Kick Me Folder for details on PhotoSpin and the images on this disk. If you’d prefer a language other than US English, we have versions in Japanese, French, Italian, German, and Spanish as well. You’ll find them in their respective subfolders inside the Kick Me Folder. To read the PDF documents, you’ll need Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.01, which we’ve included for your convenience. If you don’t have a copy already installed, please refer to the end of this document for installation instructions. For your convenience we’ve cataloged each of the images in this series using Extensis Portfolio. Portfolio is a simple and efficient electronic catalog that allows you to search images by keyword and preview images on-screen. You can run the "Vol_#_.FDB" directly from the CD using the Portfolio Browser Application, but for better performance we recommend you install the Portfolio application on your hard drive. To install, simply double click the "Portfolio 301 Installer.exe" or from the "Start..." menu, select "Run...", click the "Browse..." button, then navigate to your CD-ROM drive, find "Portfolio 301 Installer.exe" and open it. It will launch the Portfolio Setup Program which will guide you through the installation process. Please note that the full commercial version of Portfolio is installed, but its ability to function fully is limited to 60 days from the time of installation. If you like using Portfolio, you can keep it fully functioning by purchasing a serial number from Extensis and personalizing your copy of Portfolio. If you decide not to personalize it, you will lose some of the funtionality of "Portfolio", and after the 60 day trial period it will work like "Browser" (ie: you won't be able to create your own Portfolio files). For your protection, as well as our Artists, each of PhotoSpin’s Royalty Free Digital Images have been "digitally watermarked" using Digimarc technology. The Digimarc watermark can be seen by a computer but is imperceptible to the human eye. For automatic Digimarc detection to occur, the Digimarc "Detect Watermark" plug-in must be installed with your imaging software. A copyright symbol (©) will appear in the title bar of a watermarked image to notify the user of its restricted usage. Included in the watermark information is Digimarc’s web address where you can obtain further information about the copyright holder. For a copy of the "Detect Watermark" plug-in and further information regarding Digimarc please contact them directly or visit their web site at www.digimarc.com.
