THIS CHAPTER CONCERNS THE COMPANIES WHICH WOULD LIKE TO USE
WindowPictures FOR ADVERTISING.
-
By using WindowPictures you will be able to create your own advertising
subjects which will look similar to the posters
on the wall or to TV spots. The difference is the subjects will stay on
the screen all day long and more if you like!
You simply create your textures and the background pictures with your
commercial messages. Then you only have to distribute them. It is the free
method.

The second method is to distribute the special edition of WindowPictures
with your subjects with your own products.
It is the including licence for the special edition of WindowPictures.
Example:
Let's take a look, if a company wants to sell packs of disks, it can
put inside a CDROM containing a limited version of WindowPictures . This
version will display the picture , which was created by the company .
Double advantage : everybody likes to get 2 products for the price
of one (disks + WindowPictures) and at the same time the purchaser can
