1. What is Quick Paint ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Paint is a very small and simple paint program for Win95 and 
NT4.0.

Quick Paint offers powerful brush painting, which are selected as 
a part of an image and manipulated to do rotation, sizing, outline, 
shading, spray, ...etc. in 256 color mode and full color mode. 
Once you get to using it, you will find out how you can easily 
paint using brushes.

Also, Quick Paint provides multiple image buffering, mask, fill, 
zoom, and grid, adding to the basic painting tools like simple 
line draw, bend line draw, oval/rectangle draw and text drawing.  

Quick Paint does not do much with image processing, photo re-touching 
or effects because we designed this product for purely painting.

Quick Paint also provides many keyboard accelerators. We designed 
it so you can paint with as few steps as possible.

Also, Quick Paint is available at the following site:

Please see 'manual.htm' (English) or 'manual_j.htm' (Japanese) 
for more information.


2. How To Install
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
There is no install program for this version. Make a directory, like 
"QPaint" and extract all files in the zip file. "QPaint.exe" is an 
executable file. All files have to be located in the same directory.
Manually add a shortcut icon on your Quick Paint program group if you 
want. There is no uninstall program either. Just simply delete the 
folder you created when you want to uninstall Quick Paint.
