                                CHRYSANTHEMUM
                       VERSION 3.27 FOR WINDOWS 95/98
                                                     
     ***Function:      

     This  screen saver provides inspirational verses along with a beautiful 
     color display.  It produces up to 230 colors at one time  with  various 
     geometric  symmetries.  The  display  resembles  a  blooming flower and 
     hence the program was named after a flower.  The patterns are  randomly 
     generated  with  a  pause in between to provide a Bible verse.  You may 
     never see the  same  pattern  twice.  Time  and  date  are  continually 
     displayed.  

     ***Requirements:

     A PC that runs Windows 95/98 and a SVGA monitor.  The speed at least of 
     a 100MHz Pentium is recommended for smooth animation.  

     ***Distribution:

     This program is shareware.  After you have used the screen saver for  7 
     days  and  you are satisfied with it,  you are requested to send $16.95 
     to: 

     Sandpiper Software Solutions
     6304 Standsberry Lane
     Wilmington, NC   28412 USA

     This  shareware may be freely distributed in unmodified form as long as 
     no  charge  is  made  for  its  distribution  other  than   a   nominal 
     distribution fee.  

     ***Automatic Installation: 

     If you unzipped the file Chrys327.zip in an empty folder,  just  double 
     click on SETUP.  

     After the screen saver is installed,  you may need to  ACTIVATE  it  as 
     described  below.  If  something went wrong with the installation,  try 
     the manual installation described at the bottom of this document. 

     ***To Activate Your Screen Saver:

     Installing the screen saver may not activate it.  You may need to do so 
     not only to make the screen saver work but also to set  the  idle  time 
     before the computer engages it.  

     1.  Double click on My Computer, then double click on Control Panel.  

     2.  A window will pop up.  Double click on the  Display  icon  in  that 
     window.  

     3.  A large panel will appear with  tabs  at  the  top.  Click  on  the 
     Screen Saver tab.  

     4. Near the middle of the panel will be the title of the current screen 
     saver and a down arrow next to it.  Click on the down arrow and  choose 
     "Chrysanthemum" from the pop down list.  

     5.  You  may  now  click  on  "Preview" to see what the saver will look 
     like.  
 
     6. Click on Apply and then OK for the new settings to take effect.  

     ***Clean Up:

     After installation, all of the files in the initial setup folder may be 
     deleted.  These  files  are  CHRYS1,  CHRYS2,  CHRYS3,  SETUP.BAT,  and 
     README.TXT. Thus, you may just delete the entire folder if nothing else 
     is in it.  To uninstall the screen saver,  go to  your  windows  system 
     folder.   Normally,   this   would   be  C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM  and  delete 
     Chrysanthemum.scr.  

     ***Miscellaneous:

     If you find a bug,  it may be one that a patch now exists for.  I  have 
     noticed  that  the  screen  saver does not always "kick in" when I exit 
     from the DOS prompt and then don't move the mouse.  I have decided  the 
     solution  to  this  problem  is  non-trivial because other professional 
     quality programs do the same thing.  It appears to be  a  problem  with 
     windows.  If  you  have any other questions concerning the installation 
     or  operation  of  this  screen  saver,   be  sure  to  email  me   at: 
     sandpipe@usa.net and be sure to mention "Chrysanthemum 3.27" 

     ***For the record, James Thomas Parker is the author of this program.

     ***Manual Installation:

     1. Go to the folder where the Chrysanthemum SetUp files are.

     2. Rename CHRYS1 to Chrysanthemum.scr

     3.  Copy Chrysanthemum.scr to the SYSTEM  folder  directly  below  your 
     Windows folder. ( Normally, this folder is C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM ) 

     4.  Execute  Windows  Explorer  if  you  have not already and go to the 
     SYSTEM folder mentioned above.  RIGHT click  on  Chrysanthemum.scr  and 
     LEFT click on Install.  

     5.  OK  and  close  all  windows after making any adjustments.  You are 
     finished.  

     ***Dedication:
     
     This  screen  saver  is  dedicated to my creator,  who gave me a loving 
     wife.  
         
     ***Plan of Salvation:

     A) Admit you are a sinner.
     B) Believe Jesus died for your sins.
     C) Confess Him as Lord and Savior.
