Colorizer version 1.0
---------------------
<<***CLICK ANYWHERE OUTSIDE SCROLLBAR TO RETURN TO PROGRAM***>>
Welcome to Colorizer Version 1.0!
The pay version, 2.0, features:
automatic color on the screen as you change the color!
faster display algorithm - almost instantaneous!
copying to clipboard of what is displayed on the screen!
printing to an ImageWriter II in full color!
You can only get this version if you send $10 to:
Scott Neufeld
6 Lake Road
Peekskill, NY 10566
Include a disk, and I will mail back version 2.0
This program allows you to add color to any existing MacPaint, FullPaint, or
any other type of paint program you have! Here is how it works:
(*NOTE: V1.0 has an odd bug about it - if you select HELP and then
you select Read a File, either a beep and nothing or a beep and a blank
window will result - DON'T PANIC! Just select READ again. This bug
doesn't exist in 2.0)
Go into the paint program, and select the picture that you want. Using
the marquee or the lasso, select it, and copy it. You may copy it to
a scrapbook if you wish.
Go into the Colorizer program. Select Scan Clipboard (be sure a picture
is stored in the clipboard!).
The picture will then be displayed on the screen.
Select Scan a portion of the screen from the mouse menu.
Now, like you would in using a marquee, drag a box over the portion of
the picture you want a certain color. After doing so, let go of the
mouse. A new menu will pop up entitled colors. Select the color you want
the portion of the image you have selected. You won't see the color change
right now immediately (that is in the version you will receive if you
send the requested $10)
You can continue selecting portions of the screen and selecting colors.
When done, select Done Scanning from the mouse menu. Now, the computer
will scan all the areas you selected. THIS MAY TAKE AWHILE, because what
the program does is this:
It scans, up to down, the area you selected. If a pixel is found to be
black, it writes that to disk along with a tag for color. To save room on
disk, a tag is created for each section you select, not each pixel.
Reading a file:
After selecting Read a File, you have an option:
If you select "Read and Draw", then the computer will read and draw at the
same time. This screen display will be slower than Input and Draw, but it
will be continuous.
Input and Draw will store 1000 of the pixel arrangements in an array, and
THEN display it on the screen. The screen display will be faster for that
segment, but it does lose some speed when its reading into the array from
disk.
You decide which you want.
If, at any time during drawing, you want it stopped, just click the
mouse.
Again:
The pay version, 2.0, features:
automatic color on the screen as you change the color!
faster display algorithm - almost instantaneous!
copying to clipboard of what is displayed on the screen!
printing to an ImageWriter II in full color!

Enjoy, and happy colorizing!
