-
- IMAGE MASTER PLUS IV (VERSION 4.9.8) RELEASED
-
- Accidental Software announces the release of Image Master Plus IV
- (Version 4). Image Master Plus IV is a remarkable application that allows
- end users to create personal screen savers, slide shows, and animation,
- with the user's pictures and music. Significant capability and feature
- changes distinguish the Image Master Plus IV (Version 4) upgrade from
- previous versions including GIF picture format addition for registered
- users.
-
- Added text and animation capability, greater customization of display
- options for slide shows and individual pictures, and an energy saving
- feature, have been implemented. Text, varying in color, size, and
- location, can be added to overlay pictures. Animation, using a series of
- individual picture frames, can run within a slide show of still pictures.
- Display options, such as a specific transition, transition speed, and
- picture display time (time on screen before the next picture replaces
- it), can be individually customized for each picture. The display option
- settings can be applied to an entire slide show. Additionally,
- presentations can be designed with wave files associated with particular
- pictures. An energy saving feature shuts down the program, after a
- designated time, so hard drive access stops. A more extensive manual of
- features and their use has been added as a help item.
-
- This program works in both Windows 3.x and Windows 95.
