USER INSTRUCTIONS:
MYTHIC BEARS WINDOWS SCREEN SAVER
Your screen saver program has been installed into the Windows(tm)
Desktop of the Control Panel. BE CERTAIN YOUR MONITOR IS SET TO
256 COLOR PALETTE. If you have an old generic VGA monitor which
can only display 16 colors, I'm afraid these images will look
terrible. Sorry.
Accessing your screen saver is easy and requires only three steps:
I. Double Click on the Control Panel
II. Open the Desktop Item
III. Select your screen saver, set delay, and password via
Setup.
=======================================================================
I. Load the Control Panel
The Control Panel is generally found in the MAIN group of your Program
Manager. Execute the Control Panel by double clicking the Control Panel
icon.
If you cannot find the MAIN group or the Control Panel icon, you can run
the control panel from the File Manager by double clicking CONTROL.EXE in
your main Windows directory (usually called WINDOWS).
=======================================================================
II. Run the Desktop option
To run the Desktop option of the control panel, double click the Desktop
icon in the Control Panel.
=======================================================================
III. Select your screen saver
Use the 'Screen Saver' area of your Desktop screen to select your screen
saver. You may use the Test button to preview your screen saver and the
Setup button to assign a password and activate/deactivate your mouse.

FOUR GOOD REASONS TO REGISTER!
1) YOU WILL RECEIVE NINE (11) ADDITIONAL EXTRAORDINARY, UNIQUE
IMAGES OF BEARS (Actually, you will get 12 new photos because
the bear painting with the registration reminders will no longer
have text upon it.) Included in these eleven new images are
four additonal rare photos of the Ainu Bear ritual, last conducted
upon the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido in the 1920's. An
anthropology text will be included which is an excerpt from our
forthcoming e-book about early Japanese mythology. It explains
this extraordinary ritual which has antecedents in the Upper Paleolithic.
2) THE REGISTRATION REMINDERS WILL NOT APPEAR DURING YOUR SLIDE
SHOW.
3) You will be supporting an important project in which Reality
Software seeks to preserve and restore archival photography,
making individual images available to design professionals at a
cost approaching $1.00 each. Compare that price with those typically
charged by stock photography agencies. If you are a hobbyist or
design pro, you can build a collection of rare and important images
at very little cost.
4) Only registered users will have access to our tech support.

RELEASES SCHEDULED FOR 1995 AND BEYOND!
Reality Software will be releasing a series of screen savers whose
theme is antique transportation. Each registered version will contain 15
royalty free, 8 bit TIF images in 256 grey scale. These photographs are
rare: most exist as single prints made by photographers many, many decades
ago, some more than a century old. These archival images are of extraordinary
interest, to historians, hobbyists and design professionals. The majority
have never been published before in any medium and their intrinsic interest
is exceptional. The originals comprise our personal collection which took
many years to accumulate. This series offers you a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to acquire a collection of the rarest transportation photography
which is truly of museum quality. Except for an occasional old stereo card,
there is no possibility that you would see any of these prints in the public
marketplace.
1) Several additional screen savers which feature 19th century
locomotives will be released in the coming months. If you purchase
the entire collection, there will be no duplicate photos!
2) Also to be released in 1995 will be several screen savers
which feature classic sailing ships such as 19th century
schooners. The format will remain the same: each volume
contains 15 different, royalty free images.
3) In 1996, we plan to publish screen savers that feature
archival photography of early trolley cars, electric trains,
bicycles, late 19th and early 20th century warships and early
aviation.
The format of each registered product will remain the same: 15
superb, royalty free images for $15. Stock photo agencies
typically charge license fees in excess of $100 for commercial
use of their images. There will be no duplicate photos throughout
our entire collection of archival transportation screen savers.
If you register this product, you will automatically be placed
upon our mailing list to be notified as each volume in the
Antique Transportation Screen Saver series is released. Be
certain to indicate an e-mail address on the registration form:
we distribute a great deal of our publicity as e-text.
