     A tale so dark as to make Black Friday seem like 
     medium gray by comparison...

     1. Calendar Wizard 8 Revision 2
     _______________________________________________________________________



     Calendar Wizard 8 has been updated.

     This release:


     - Fixes a somewhat embarrassing bug in the double-sided calendar print
       logic that could cause some pictures to be misaligned, depending on 
       the picture dimensions and your build of Windows. 


     - Vastly speeds up the handling of File menu thumbnails and the File 
       Open window's previews. You'll need to resave your existing calendars 
       under this release to make this happen. The results are 
       breathtaking... if your breath is taken by stuff like this.

     
     - Adds a Preserve Captions option to the Replicate window. Combined 
       with the Preserve Pictures option, you can have Replicate update all
       the stylistic elements in a calendar without nuking your month-
       specific graphic or their captions.
   

     - Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software 
       developers never really stop meddling with.      


     - Updates the documentation.

     2. Graphic Workshop Professional 8 Revision 3 (second Notification)  
     _______________________________________________________________________



     Graphic Workshop Professional 8 has been updated.

     This release:


     - Addresses a few more issues that crept into the initial release of
       Graphic Workshop Professional 8. 


     - Improves the solid color selection buttons throughout the application 
       with a quick palette selection window - just hold down the Shift key 
       on your keyboard when you click to select a color to see it. There's 
       a complete discussion of this window and how it interacts with the 
       primary Colors window in the section of the Reference document that 
       deals with Color Selection.


     - Addresses an issue which prevented the Abort button in the Progress 
       window from being recognized when Graphic Workshop was processing 
       large numbers of high-resolution JPG files under some builds and 
       configurations of Windows (if there was a penguin within 1500 meters 
       of your house, possibly.)


     - Fixes a bug in e-Paint UltraLight that caused the floating tool and
       settings palette windows to become unselected during drawing in
       some circumstances - see the above reference to the proximity of
       a penguin.


     - Improves the JPG reader.


     - Updates several functions in the GWS Camera screen capture application.


     - Updates Archive Manager.


     - Addresses a potential security issue.


     We urge all users of Graphic Workshop Professional 8 to install this
     upgrade, and any users of earlier versions to consider upgrading as
     quickly as possible.
