GifLoader V1.1 - June 16, 1997
Copyright  1997 by Kevin Routley.  All rights reserved.

Thank you for evaluating GifLoader V1.1!

Installation
============

To install, copy the contents of the GifLoader disk or ZIP
file into a directory on your hard disk.  

GifLoader will NOT run unless GIFLOADR.HLP, REGISTER.EXE
and NTHELPR.EXE are in the same directory as the executable 
files.  The other files are not needed after you've read 
them.

You may execute the program by double-clicking on the EXE
in Explorer.  For most convenient use, create a Shortcut
to be placed on your DeskTop or in the Start Menu.  By
using a shortcut, you may customize the "Start In" options
to have GifLoader automatically point at the location where
you have stored your wallpaper files.

Getting Started
===============

GifLoader initially displays the GIF files in the directory
it was started from.  Navigate to the directory where you 
have stored your wallpaper files.  Once there, select any
file in the list to see a preview image; press the Apply
button to display the selected image as your wallpaper.

The same applies to BMP (bitmap) files.  To see BMP files
in the display, change the "Files of type" dropdown to
"Bitmap Files".

Wallpaper can be displayed Centered, Tiled, and for those
with Windows 95 Plus!, or Windows NT 4.0 installed, Stretched.  
Experiment with these three settings to determine the 
best setting for a given image file.

De-Installation
===============

Should you choose not to keep GifLoader, it may be 
de-installed by deleting the files you restored from the
distribution set.  Also, delete any shortcuts or Start Menu
entries you may have created.  Finally, delete GIFLOADR.INI 
and GIFLOADR.BMP from your Windows directory.  Thats it!
