- I only gave yowza a quick demo, but I had a lot problems with it.
-
- - each save screen has to be included explicitly, I found several of
- those included in the package were rejected as "not of the correct
- format"
- - my computer locked up several times when demoing
-
- So I switched to deskpic which tells you not to use two out of about
- a dozen screens in OS/2 v2. Beyond that it worked great and has some
- really nifty pics: fade to black, eyes, flashlight, etc.
-
- If anyone running yowza can explain how to get it to work I might
- try it again.
