It was written with^3[2 AMOS[0^6 and is set for release on August ^61st. ^1 The program allows the user to create pictures either with the ^1inbuilt `stickers' or with the art package supplied. The `stickers' ^1are in the form of black & white line drawings which can be stuck ^1onto a background to form a picture. Text can then be added to ^1describe the picture and make a page. ^5 A series of these pages is built up on disk to make a whole `book' ^5which can be played back using the player program. ^6 The pictures can be painted using the art package. There is a 24 ^6colour palette, plus a[2 PATTERN FILL[0 feature which gives a choice of ^6over 100 patterns. Many of the usual art package functions are ^6available,[2 FREEHAND DRAW, BOX, OVAL, CIRCLE[0 etc., and these can be ^6used as outlines or solid filled shapes, or even pattern filled. ^6There is a[2 ZOOM[0 facility which allows you to repair minor mistakes ^6and an[2 OOPS[0 button which undoes the last action. ^2 The text section lets you choose your paper and the pen colour and ^2there is an edit function which allows the alteration of an incorrect ^2line. ^5 To add interest when playing back a story, there are different ^5screen wipes to choose from, so that each new page can be made to ^5appear in a different way. Also, you can choose from a variety of ^5little tunes to accompany your tale. ^1[3 PAINT ME A STORY[0 is available from:- ^7[3GENISOFT,[0 [1UNIT 3, POYLE 14,[0 [1NEWLANDS DRIVE,[0 [1COLNBROOK,[0 [1BERKS.[0 [1SL3 0DX[0 [2Tel:- (0753) 680363.[0 [2PRICE £24.95p[0 ^6 (This is not intended as a review as it is one of our programs.
