REGISTRATION
------------
3aline Screensaver is time-limited "try before you buy" software, and is
provided with a 14-day evaluation period. After 14 days, 3aline will no
longer create designs, but will display an order form. Occasionally while it
is running, 3aline displays a message showing how many days to expiry there
is.
On receipt of your registration fee, you will be emailed, faxed or mailed a
code which will allow the program the resume displaying patterns. This
registration code is entered into the Registration field on the Setup screen.
Your support through registration is appreciated and will encourage the
development of additional graphics and features.
If you wish to use 3aline after 14 days, please send a cheque for
US$20.00 (or its equivalent in your currency) to:
Seraline P/L,
P.O. Box 282,
Ryde,
NSW 2112,
Australia.
Other currencies:
Australian Dollars: $25.00
United Kingdom: 12.50 pounds.
Personal or company cheques in your own currency are accepted. Please make
cheques payable to Seraline Pty Ltd.
Checks MUST be in your own country's currency. US Dollar checks must be drawn
on a US Bank. EuroCheques must be in your own currency, not $US or Australian.
See below for credit card payments.
A printable order form in WordPad format is in the file order.doc. An order
form can also be displayed and printed from the Control Panel Setup screen.
In order to keep the cost of 3aline low, diskettes are not sent.
These prices and conditions are valid until 31st January 1999 for this version,
and are subject to change with future versions.
If you have already paid a fee to others (eg disk or CD vendors) to obtain
this evaluation copy, that fee was for their copying and distribution
services, rather than a payment for continued use of the program, and the
software author does not receive any part of that fee.
