!Help for !NewIcons3 Version 1.10 - 27th July 1992
--------------------------------------------------
This little program adds a bit of brightness to the desktop and puts it in
3D. It may not work properly with RISC OS 2. The sprites are all multi-scan
so they will look a little strange (awful!) in normal modes but we couldn't
be bothered to redesign all the sprites with rectangular pixels.If you need
a lot of memory after running !NewIcons3 I suggest you press <Ctrl+Break>
(Saving your work first of course!) and then reload the program/s you were
using. The 3 in the title refers to RISC OS 3 not version 3. Please send me
any sprites you make up and I will send you back um...er... the disc you
sent and a letter of thanks (I would send you my demo disc or some other
software I have written but as yet I haven't written anything else!). Many
thanks to James Chesher for creating about half of the sprites. If you want
the back tile to be automatically loaded to the pinboard, load the !Run
file into !Edit and change:
|Run <NewIcons$Dir>.Pinboard
to:
Run <NewIcons$Dir>.Pinboard

Send me anything you like, Cheats for games, PD Software, Bug Reports (What
can possibly go wrong!),A letter of thanks , Money (I don't think so!),
Recipes, The Bible, etc. etc. Any viruses, Poisonous substances or atomic
weapons to be sent as far away as possible, thankyou ! ! !
I promise to return all discs.
For those of you who might want to make some more sprites, I have included
some ecf's for your use. They are different shades of green for use in making
things with acorns in them. Also the file 'Backtile' can be replaced with
something else to go on the backdrop. I have included some nice Backtiles for
you to experiment with.
