Palette 1.1 [Quick Time, Windows Operating System, Macintosh Operating System]

http://www.ljug.com/sw/palette.html

Palette 1.1 is an easy-to-use painting program that allows users to save their creations, along with the option of exporting and importing pictures saved in a number of popular formats for modification. The website for the program itself contains a helpful cheat sheet allowing novice users to learn how the application works. The site also contains some sample galleries, so visitors have some sense of the capabilities offered by Palette. The application is compatible with all platforms running Windows 95 and above or Mac OS. [KMG]



Books2burn [Macintosh Operating System]

http://educ.kent.edu/~mweinste/

Developed by Professor Matthew Weinstein of Kent State University, Books2burn translates text files into a series of audio files, which may then subsequently be converted to mp3's or other formats. This program will be a great boon to scholars and the general public alike, as the application allows for the easy transfer and replication of potentially large and problematic files into a number of audio formats. Books2burn is compatible with all systems running Mac OS X. [KMG]
