| graphics formats) are in development. To get these, or for pre-compiled |
| binaries, go to "http://www.schaik.com/png/visualpng.html". |

| When distributing VisualPng (or a further development) the following options |
| are available: |
| |
| 1) Build the program with the configuration "Win32 LIB" and you only need to |
| include the executable from the ./lib directory in your distribution. |
| |
| 2) Build the program with the configuration "Win32 DLL" and you need to put |
| in your distribution the executable from the ./dll directory and the dll's |
| libpng1.dll, zlib.dll and msvcrt.dll. These need to be in the user's PATH. |
