How
to Use Your Backdrops with SilverScreen Version 3
Pocket Sensei recently released the much-anticipated SilverScreen
Version 3. With SilverScreen Version 3, you can use "backdrops"
(background images similar to "wallpaper" on computer
desktops) -- BUT ONLY IF YOU HAVE A PALM HANDHELD
THAT IS POWERED BY PALM OPERATING SYSTEM
OS5 or HIGHER.
If you DO have a Palm OS5 device
and need a bit of a tutorial on how to access and utilize
your backdrops, we're providing the following to help you
gain a higher level of enjoyment with your handheld device.
| On
your computer, perform the
following steps: |
| Step 1 ::: |
Step 2 ::: |
| 
|
Unzip the Theme File to your
preferred directory
(please take note
of what directory!)
|
|
| 
|
Open Folder Labeled as " [theme title]
... Backdrops."
|
|
| Step 3 ::: |
Step 4 ::: |
| 
|
Open Palm "Install Tool."
|
|
| 
|
DRAG the JPG file to the INSTALL TOOL.
Double-clicking on
the JPG will only open the image in whatever
your default viewer is, so you MUST drag the
file.
Note that it will AUTOMATICALLY install
onto your SD card.

NOW SYNC YOUR PALM TO YOUR COMPUTER TO INSTALL THE BACKDROP(S)

your handheld, perform the

Preferences" once opened.

"dropdown."
(Likely currently displayed as "None.")

| Step 3 ::: |
Step 4 ::: |
| 
|
Choose the GIF/JPEG
option.
|
|
| 
|
Navigate to the folder on your SD card where
the
Backdrop
was installed.
Note: If you have
a card reader, you can access the files using
Windows Explorer and copy the files to the card
and place them in your preferred directory.
|
|
| Step 5 ::: |
Step 6 ::: |
| 
|
Choose the Backdrop
that you want to use.
Click "open" and your Palm will process
your request.
