Interesting.
The referenced vicman site required an email registration to get the path
of
http://files.vicman.net/phtkinst.exe
So I went to snapfiles instead for the same version 1.7 Photo Toolkit for
Winxp.
http://freealternative.wordpress.com/category/multimedia-design/image-editing/
I said no when WinXP StartupMonitor freeware warned me about photo toolkit
"The program I&F Viewer toolbar has registered the executable
C:\bin\pic\edit\Photo Toolkit\ivbar\phototoolkitmem.exe -start
to run at system startup.
Do you wish to allow this change?"
Then an error occurred in the winxp photo toolkit installation saying
Setup: Unable to execute file:
http://www.vicman.net/installed.php?Title=Photo
Toolkit&Version=1.7
ShellExecuteEx failed; code 2.
The system cannot find the file specified.
I generally have few problems installing winxp software.
If this vicman software either requires a startup item or if it must be
intalled into the hideously overbloated and under-organized idiotic
"Program Files" hierarchy, then it's probably not well-written software.
Or
it could be that the snapfiles Photo Toolkit version 1.7 has an
installation bug in it. Or, I could have a problem with my system.
However, after OK'ing the error above, the lovely red-eye-reduction
"sample.jpg" of the mother, baby, and half-eaten peach ovary showed up and
the red-eye reduction button worked and the installation gave no other
errors.
Wierd huh?
