Growing Need for Digital Photography Prompts Two New CD-ROM Product Lines
from Seattle Support Group

Growing demand for digital color photography prompts launch of two new
lines of CDROM-based, royalty-free photography for Windows and Macintosh
users: Screens & Wallpaper (200 screen-resolution images per volume for
$19.95) and Color Digital Photos (200 magazine quality, high-resolution
photographs for $79.95).

PC EXPO, New York, June 28, 1994 -- Over 2.5 million color printers were
sold in 1993 alone, reflecting the increased use of color in desktop
publishing and presentations. This growing need for quality, royalty-free
photography, plus the increasing demand for color images in video and
multimedia, has prompted Seattle Support Group to launch two new product
families of digital photography on CD-ROM.

The new 2-volume Screens & Wallpaper collection features 200
screen-resolution images per CD-ROM disk, for use in as backgrounds in
multimedia productions, as screen savers, as Windows Desktop backgrounds,
or in presentations using programs like PowerPoint, Pursuasion, and
Astound.

The second collection, called Color Digital Photos features 200 magazine
quality-images per CD-ROM disk. Color Digital Photos are high-resolution
(2100 by 1500 pixels), 24-bit color images suitable for color desktop
publishing of brochures, posters, etc. Images are stored as JPEG files
that expand to 9 MB, and print to 7 by 5-inches at 300 DPI (or 150 LPI).

Each high-resolution Color Digital Photos image also comes in
screen-resolution format for previewing, or for use in the same ways
possible with Screens & Wallpaper. Both collections also come with Kudos
image browsing software for easier previewing and drag-and-drop transfer
into packages like Photoshop, PageMaker and Quark

Both collections feature a range of subjects, including professionally
photographed scenes of nature, lifestyles, business, animals, plants,
vehicles, sunsets, etc. Color Digital Photos includes some single-subject
CD-ROM disks -- such as NASA pictures of space and spacecraft (Vol. 2),
flowers (Vol. 3), aircraft (Vol. 4) and glamour shots (Vol. 6).

Screens & Wallpaper and Color Digital Photos both feature the work of
professional photographers. Images are chosen for their ability to
maintain their quality and usefulness after their conversion to digital
form. Once digitized, all photos are previewed, cleaned, cropped, and
color corrected. Imperfections -- such as dust particles captured during
scanning -- are removed digitally.

All of the photographs in Screens & Wallpaper and Color Digital Photos are
completely royalty free. They can be freely used for any commercial or
non-commercial purpose -- except for redistribution in digital stock
photography collections, or in sexually explicit materials.

Screens & Wallpaper and Color Digital Photos disks can be used
interchangeably on CD-ROM equipped PC or Macintosh personal computers. If
you own a PC, minimum system requirements are: 80286 CPU, Microsoft
Windows 3.0 or later, VGA color video board and compatible color monitor,
a mouse or other pointing device. Macintosh systems require at least a
68020 CPU, 2 MB of application RAM, Apple system software 6.07 or later
(including version 7), 32-bit QuickDraw extension and QuickTime
extension.

The first two Screens & Wallpaper volumes will be available at the
beginning of July 1994. Each volume costs $19.95 and includes 200
royalty-free screen-resolution images.

Color Digital Photos is now available in 6 different CD-ROM volumes:
Premier, Space, Floral, Planes, Paramount, and Glamour. Each volume sells
for $79.95 and contains 200 photographs, saved in high-resolution and in
screen-resolution formats.
