1. GIF Construction Set Professional 6 Revision 7
_______________________________________________________________________
GIF Construction Set Professional 6 has been updated. This release:
- Updates the Favorites window... quite a lot. This release fixes
several fairly nettlesome bugs, improves the user interface and adds
an option to have double-clicking on a Favorites item open the
corresponding animation as a GIF Construction Set document, and close
the Favorites window.
The latter behavior can be disabled in Setup, if you prefer the
original response to double-clicking.
- Improves the color management logic in Animation Wizard and Combine.
- Fixes a potential user interface issue in the View window.
- Improves Reconstruct - aside from its use in the Reconstruct item in
the Block menu, it turns up in various other functions.
- Addresses a potential security issue - if you're using GIF
Construction Set, we urge you to upgrade to this release pretty
much immediately.
- Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software
developers never really stop meddling with.
- Updates the documentation.
You can download GIF Construction Set Professional 6 from:

2. e-Paint 6 Revision 5 (Second Notification)
_______________________________________________________________________
e-Paint 6 has been updated. This release:
- Adds a Favorites window. Pin your frequently-used pictures to
Favorites, and thereafter access your best graphics with a few
clicks. See the discussion of Favorites in the Reference document
of the manual for the whole tale.
- Nails a bug that prevented the toolbar buttons from displaying tool
tips under some builds of Windows.
- Addresses several potential problems in the Filter interface that
could have crashed e-Paint if the universe was in a mood.
- Fixes a problem with the Text tool that saw it becoming confused if
it was confronted with badly-formed third-party TrueType fonts... the
kind you download from higher-order dimensions of space-time.
- Addresses a potential memory leak in the Undo function.
- Improves the performance of the rendering engine - this pretty much
never stops.
- Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software
developers never really stop meddling with.
- Updates the documentation.

3. Windows 10 (Additional Notification)
_______________________________________________________________________
Alchemy Mindworks applications earlier than version 6.0 don't run under
Windows 10.
Depending on the specific software in question and your operating
system configuration, all sorts of really unfortunate things would
happen in this environment.
The current version 6.0 Alchemy Mindworks applications have been
rewritten and thoroughly tested to get along with Windows 10.
We'd like to take this opportunity to urge all the users of earlier
versions of our software to consider upgrading to version 6.0. You'll
enjoy:
- Ongoing enhancements and new functionality.
- Bug fixes and security upgrades.
- No nasty surprises at such time as you install Windows 10.
NOTE: While the half-price upgrade path from the now somewhat ancient
version 4.0 software has officially ended, we have extended the 4.0
half-price window for the immediate future.
If you update your 4.0 Alchemy Mindworks products, just ignore the
message at our update e-commerce page about the updates only being
available for version 5.
Please see http://www.mindworkshop.com/upgrade.html to upgrade.
