and is now shipping. Use our secure order form and order on-line at

WebAK Features:

GIF Animations:
---------------
WebAK provides the ability to load and take apart GIF animations, construct
them by simple drag-and-drop, test animations by playing them (even supporting
the Restore Previous method yet supported by Netscape), or save them using a
highly optimized algorithm for the smallest file size possible.  And unlike
most other applications, WebAK is designed to also create and work with GIF
Animations containing hundreds of frames.

Pattern Generation:
-------------------
WebAK's Pattern Generator lets you create seamless patterns for use as
backgrounds or for inclusion in your animations.  With additional tools such
as an Image Holder to store your patterns, a variety of filters for
touching-up, and an Image Tile tester, creating backgrounds for web pages has
never been any easier.

Imagemaps:
----------
WebAK's Imagemap Writer lets you highlight areas on an image, specify links,
and creates Server-side or Client-side imagemaps for you, with or without HTML
test code. Once you use this tool, you will never want to hand-code Imagemaps
again.

Scripting:
----------
WebAK's easy to use scripting language simplifies the tasks needed for more
complex animations, even for the most casual computer users.  For more
advanced users, the scripting language (actually a C++ style interpreter)
provides more features such as the ability to create or destroy objects,
variables, test conditions, and looping constructs.  Either way, you can find
dozens of interesting example scripts on Modular Dreams' website to get you
started.

Image formats and Alpha channel:
--------------------------------
WebAK support a variety of image formats including GIF, JPEG, and lossless
JPEG for loading images and some of the more common formats should you wish to
save single images.  It also supports Alpha channels for specifying
transparency.

Collapse and Resurrect:
----------------------
By using WebAK's unique Collapse and Resurrect feature, you can store not only
the end result of your work, such as a GIF animation, but also the steps that
went into it, for example the GIF Animator window and its settings, the
various effect dialogs which you have open and even any links you created by
drag-and-dropping between objects.  If you create something neat, don't just
tell others how to do it, give them your whole environment.  Everything, even
images being displayed, will be neatly stored in one file!  Once you use the
Collapse and Resurrect feature provided by WebAK, you will wish all your other
programs did this.

Price: $65.00
