-- KrisCards (TM) -- Registration and Ordering Information KrisCards 2.0 is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the user for a 10 day evaluation period. Feel free to share it with your friends or to upload it to bulletin boards as long as the original files remain unaltered and intact. WHAT IS SHAREWARE? ------------------ Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. Because of the low overhead, Shareware products often have more features or a lower price than similar retail products. And since you can "try before you buy" during the free trial period, Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it. Continued use after the trial period requires that you "register" the program. WHAT IS REGISTRATION? --------------------- Registration grants you a license to freely use the KrisCards program and its images within certain limits. You do not own the program or the images. The license is for one copy of the software for use on any one computer at any one time. Registration fees give a shareware author incentive to develop new products and provide support for existing products. It is the wages for our efforts. Besides being the "right thing to do", registration is legally required to use any shareware program after the evaluation period. Our license is for PERSONAL and NON-PROFIT use. Commercial use is prohibited. Additional details concerning business and BBS use is listed in the legal section of the program documentation. WHAT DO I GET? -------------- Registered users recieve the latest version of KrisCards, technical support, full documentation, and other benefits. These benefits include a choice of card sets (where applicable), more icons, and discounts on other products. As a registered user, you may use KrisCards and images from the card sets for any LAWFUL manner. You may not copy the program, blank cards or images for others. KrisCards are intended to be used as greeting cards. However, registration allows you to use the images in other forms, such as: 1). as clip art 2). as "wallpaper" 3). in private newsletters 4). as FAX cover sheets 5). in non-profit group bulletins 6). as client greetings (no advertisements) 7). in BBS promotions (but not as menu pages) 8). in other electronic and printed forms Please use a printed copy of ORDER.FRM when ordering. US and Canada ordering information ---------------------------------- * Cash, Check, Money Order or U.S. Postal Order. No COD'S. * All payments must be in U.S. funds drawn on U.S. banks.

To minimize taxable amounts, we have separated the Shipping & Handling fees since they pay for a serice rendered in Alabama. Notice that only one shipping charge is due per order regardless of the number of packages that may be required. * Prices and terms subject to change without notice. If your product is more than a year old, consider it dated. Please write for current prices, or check with your BBS for the current shareware version. International Orders --------------------- * International Orders should consider a traveler's check payable in US funds, an international money order, or U.S. currency. * International orders may be subject to tarrifs. The customer is considered to be the importer and pays all applicable amounts. * We cannot accept checks drawn on foreign banks. We regret that there is not a universal currency. Exchange rates vary widely and local banks charge a hefty sum for conversions. Exchange rates also affect your perception of the program cost when compare to US dollars. For example, 20 British Pounds is roughly equivalent to 30 US dollars, while the same dollar amount is almost 47,000 Italian Lira! (US exchange rates as of 11/94). Special Note for CASH Payments ------------------------------ Please use 2 envelopes when mailing cash. Place the cash inside an envelope and tape all coinage. Seal the envelope and write the amount on the cover in normal size letters. Wrap this envelope with the order form to prevent anyone from reading the amount. Place the order form inside the mailing envelope and post accordingly. Finally, we enjoy reading the letters we receive from you. If you have a suggestion or a comment for us, drop us a line.
