	Shareware Manager Sandy Foderick Mac shareware essentials Holidays Shareware: Sandy Foderick With thanks to Rick Curran of Coastal Mac! Useful shareware programs for fun! Fall Fonts Festival The annual "Fall Fonts Festival" is going on at the Design & Publishing Center (managed by UGNN's own Fred Showker!), featuring neat type faces, fonts, tips and essays on using fonts and typography. There are dozens of fonts spotlighted, (complete with samples,) that you can download. They're all located in the Publishers' Warehouse -- which Fred has maintained online since 1989 -- usually a hidden URL for subscribers to DT&G magazine only. But he gave me permission to release the URL for user groups this month. - Thanks to: Fred for sending this in.

Notes HTML Turbo WYSIWYG web creations are great; they let even the newest user create pages that look professionally done. Problem is, they often add unnecessary lines of script, bloating the finished pages without adding content or value. HTML Turbo strips out the bloat, leaving your finished product untouched but making the underlying code smaller and quicker to load. Shareware fees are $10. - File this one under: Web Design and Development ...Here's where you can get it: http://www.regsoft.net/purchase_nonsecure.php3?productid=40680 . Have a great October!
