Tellitagan stories are shareware and freely distributable in unaltered form. Each story has 30-35 pages with 1-3 captions per page.  .WAV narration files are linked to the captions.  Each page has a black and white line drawing.  Clicking on the "color" button will bring up a 240-color paint program for
coloring the b&w picture.  When finished, the colored version is saved, replacing the b&w version.  The colored picture will be used in place of the b&w picture in all future tellings of the story.  Saving can be disabled.

Installation Guide

After downloading one of the story .EXE files, move it into a new directory 
on a drive with about 15Mb available (the story will only use about half 
that much after installation).  The downloaded file has all of the story 
components in a compressed form to speed up downloading. When you Run the 
downloaded .EXE (from Program Manager or the Start Bar), it will restore all 
of the story files automatically.  

Note that there will be TWO .EXE files in the new directory after you run 
the downloaded file.  One is the download file (nnnDOWN.EXE), while the 
other is the story file (nnnSTORY.EXE). The nnnDOWN.EXE can be deleted to 
free up disk space.  The story .EXE can now be run from Program Manager 
or the Start bar.

To install the story on your desktop, you need to make a new program item 
(and a new group, if you choose).  Icons for the desktop are included.  
That can be done from Program Manager in Windows3.x or the Start Bar in 
Win95.

If you have trouble, please let me know.  I will try to help...but computer 
systems are so different - each has a unique set of problems.  You can reach 
me at 800-571-8927.  If you get an answering machine, please leave a message 
and I will return your call as soon as I can.  Another way to reach me is 
by e-mail at jomo@io.com.

A final note:  I have many, many hours invested in the production of these 
stories.  I hope that you like them, and that you will pay me the price I am asking for them (US$8). The ABOUT screen has information for registering. Thanks.
