The Lim Slide Show Version 3.00
===============================
Thank You for acquiring the Lim Slide Show. This is a Shareware product
that is free for evaluation and distribution for a 30-day period, after
which, you must register the product in order to continue its use legally.
Once registered, you are not allowed to distribute the program anymore.
The Lim Slide Show is a multimedia slide show presenter/manager that helps
you to create slide shows of your images, video clips, animation, sound effects,
text narratives and plays them with your music selection on a beautiful background
of changing colors with special transition effects.
It is optimised for 800X600 16-bit/24-bit color display systems but will also
work in 256-color modes and other screen resolutions. It is recommended that
you set your display to 800X600 16-bit color for optimum color quality and performance.
This evaluation version is fully functional except that it is limited to play only
5 slides or up to 10 objects at a time, and you cannot produce slide shows for distribution.
Once registered, these limitations will be removed and you will get another file to allow
you to configure your favourite slide show as a screen saver (Win 3.x & Win'95 only).
Registered users will also be able to distribute their slide shows to external parties.
FREE DEMO SLIDE SHOWS
=====================
Version 3.00 has the capability to play multiple demo slide show files with no restrictions,
even for unregistered users. At the moment, we offer the Lim Family's TRIBUTE TO PRINCESS
DIANA and the Lim Family's Christmas slide shows. These slide shows also serve to demonstrate the
capabilities of our product. You can download our Princess Diana slide show or any other
demo slide shows we offer separately from our program, or bundled together. Please check out
our web site at http://xoom.com/limfam or http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/way/6837
from time to time for more FREE demo slide shows.
The Princess Diana & Christmas slide shows were designed for 16-bit color with 800X600 screen
resolution and is best viewed in this resolution. However, 1 of the powerful features of our
product is that it can resize images automatically to fit any screen resolution & therefore
can run the Demo slide show on other screen resolutions. Preferably, the color resolution
should be at least 64K colors (16-bit). It will run on 256-color mode but at the expense of
image quality (there aren't enough colors on the 256-color pallete).
To run these demo slide shows, click on the RUN button without selecting anything. From the file
selection dialog box, click on DIANA.FGA or CHRIST.FGA. We recommend that you run these demo
slide shows as an introduction to the power of our product.
You can use our program to create your own Princess Diana or any other
slide shows of the same or even better quality than our demo. By registering
our program, you will receive setup files to configure our Princess Diana
Slide Show into a screen saver, or you can replace it with your own slide
shows as the screen saver. You will also have the capability to distribute your
work to external parties.
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR WIN'NT USERS
=================================
The screen saver feature only works for Win'95 & Win 3.x platforms. It
DOES NOT work for Windows NT at the moment. We are working on a solution
at the moment. If the screen saver is what you want, please DO NOT register
our program. However, the slide show presenter/manager program works
perfectly on Windows NT to allow you to create and play your slide shows.
Installation
============
To install the product, unzip limss232.zip (the 32-bit version) or limss216.zip
(the 16-bit version) to extract the contents into a directory of your choice.
Execute lssetup.exe to install the product. When prompted to select a
directory to install the product, you can choose the same directory or a
new one. Upon successful installation, lssetup.exe will create a windows
program group and generate a Product Serial Number. Click on the REGISTER
button in order to view and copy down this Serial Number.
When you decide to register this product, the Serial Number must be sent to
the author to generate a Registration Key. Together, they will unlock the
full capabilities of the product.
Besides installation, lssetup.exe will be used to enter your Registration Key,
setup your screen saver and to uninstall the product.
It is important for you to record the Serial Number and Registration Key
somewhere as they are proof that you are a registered user of the Lim Slide
Show and entitles you to benefits such as free upgrades and technical
support.

your work as well as to setup your favourite slide show as a screen saver, you
