Thank you for downloading EZSaver(tm).  Please move the file 
EZSAVER.SCR to your \WINDOWS directory, then follow the directions 
below for Windows 3.1 or Windows 95:

Windows 3.1:
------------
Locate the Control Panel icon (usually found in the program group
titled "Main"), double-click it to run it, then double-click the
Desktop icon to run that.  Locate the section titled "Screen Saver".

Click the downward-pointing arrow (just to the right of the current
screen saver) to get a list of all savers in the \WINDOWS directory,
and select "EZSaver 1.1".

Use the Test button to immediately see the EZSaver effect, and the
Setup button to try it with your own images and background color
selections.  See below for more info.

Windows 95:
-----------
Click the right mouse button anywhere exposed on the desktop to run
the Display panel, then click on the Screen Saver tab.  Select
"EZSaver 1.1" from the list of screen savers.

Use the Preview button to immediately see the EZSaver effect, and the
Settings button to try it with your own images and background color
selections.

(Note: you can also run the Display panel by clicking the START
button and selecting Settings/Control Panel, which displays a Display
icon you can double-click)

Tips for creating screen savers:
--------------------------------
You can see from playing with EZSaver a little that the best effect
is achieved if the logo image's background matches the selected
screen background.  EZSaver performs no image "masking", and
therefore achieves smooth animation on a wide range of PC's.

You should crop the image close to the logo itself (in other words,
don't leave a lot of margin) to minimize initial calculations and 
get full animation rolling as quickly as possible.

Bitmaps are rejected if the width times the height of a bitmap is 
greater that 100,000. Bitmaps smaller than this should always
allow a smooth animation effect.

If you plan to distribute screen savers to other users, keep in
mind that only 16-color bitmaps are guaranteed to appear the same
on all Windows installations.  A screen saver with a 256-color 
photo-quality image will appear OK on all Super VGA systems, but 
not very good on simple VGA systems.

Saving the saver:
-----------------
You can test EZSaver's ability to use your image, color selection,
and description to create a new screen saver, which is then saved to a
single file (like EZSAVER.SCR) to simplify distribution.

You can do this without registration codes (simply leave them blank)
to create evaluation screen savers, which are time-constricted to one
minute (starting when the full animation effect kicks in).  If you
decide to register, you'll know how to build your savers when you
receive your codes.
