Your Digi-Frame™ can be used in a variety of ways:

Camera  Images Direct to Digi-Frame™:

This is the simplest way to use your Digi-Frame™. Take a picture with your dig-
ital camera, remove the memory card from the camera, insert it into your Digi-
Frame™, and view your pictures.

E-mail Images:

When you receive a picture via e-mail, most programs allow you to save the
image file to your computer’s hard disk. If the image is visible on your com-
puter screen, you can often save the image file by clicking and holding the
mouse on the image on Macintosh® computers, or by right-clicking  on com-
puters running Windows®. This usually brings up a pop-up menu allowing
you to save the image file. If the image file is contained in an attachment to
the e-mail, there is usually a button or link that requires only clicking once. In
AOL, this is the "Download Now" button. Once the image file is saved to your
hard disk, use Digi-Link™ to send it to your Digi-Frame™ for viewing. It can be
saved onto any memory card inserted into your Digi-Frame™.

Internet Images:

Images found on many websites can be saved to your hard disk and then
downloaded to your Digi-Frame™ in the same way as e-mail images.

Camera Images to PC and then to Digi-Frame™:

Many digital camera users will want to take advantage of their personal com-
puter’s power, memory, and user interface to organize and archive their pho-
tos and other images. Many excellent software programs provide facilities for
doing this. Images can be transferred from the camera to the computer by a
serial connection (RS232, U SB, or FireWire™) or by use of a card-reader
peripheral. After editing, transfer the images to your Digi-Frame™ using Digi-
Link™ or a card reader.

Storing Your Images on Memory Cards for Digi-Frame™ Viewing:

Memory cards provide a quick and simple way of storing groups of photos for
instant viewing on your Digi-Frame™. Once images are saved on your hard
disk, they can be organized into groups for display on your Digi-Frame™ as
pre-loaded slideshows. Images can be transferred to memory cards either by
sending them to the Digi-Frame™ with Digi-Link™ or by writing them onto a
memory card with a card reader peripheral. The latter is faster. You could save,
for instance, all your photos for one year on one memory card, or all photos of
a special event. When you want to show your vacation pictures to a friend you
can simply retrieve the "Vacation Pictures" memory card and pop it in your
Digi-Frame™ for instant viewing!

Collecting and Viewing Digi-Frame™ Pre-Loaded Image Cards:

Digi-Frame Inc. will offer collections of pre-loaded images on memory cards. If
you get tired of your own photos, pop in a card of great works of art, profes-
sionally-photographed landscapes, sports heroes, you name it! The image col-
lections will also be available for purchase via download from our website.
Check our website or your retailer for availability information.

programmable in ten-second increments up to ten minutes. Further
enhance your slideshows with our variety of selectable transition effects.

your CompactFlash™ or SmartMedia™ card allowing you to make indi-
