ABOUT THE PROGRAM 


 3D GIF Designer produces animated high-quality 3D pictures, titles, 
 banner ads and buttons for your Web page or for a presentation.
 You can create animations from your own pictures
 (JPG, GIF, BMP, AVI) and easily add 3D text and shapes.
 The sprites technology enables to control over placement, size,
 motion, appearance, soft-edged shadows and opacity.
 You can add unlimited number of 3D text strings with own
 color, font, size, extrusion, texture, rotation and lightening.
 For quickly getting started, design your own animation from over
 30 professional templates (banners, buttons, logos), and

 smaller than nonoptimized.
 In addition, 3D GIF Designer allows you to animate sprites
 with several effects such as Swing, Rotate, Blink and

HOW TO GET VALID SERIAL NUMBER by using SoftIce


1.  Run GIF_DESIGNER.EXE, click HELP/REGISTRATION/REG KEY submenu, 
    in the registration dialog box type these below informations :

	Name	: RED RACKHAM

2.  Load SoftIce by pressing [ CTRL + D ], set a breakpoint as follow :
    

	BPX hmemcpy     [enter]   and
   	F5  to return to the main program

3.  Now, click OK button... you'll return back into SoftIce!
    In within SoftIce press F11, F5, F11, then F12 11 times until you 
    see and break at :

	______________________________________________________________
	
	015F:00504ECD  E856E3F2FF    CALL  00433228 <== break here
	015F:00504ED2  8B95F4FDFFFF  MOV   EDX,[EBP-020C]
	015F:00504ED8  58            POP   EAX ==> d edx
	015F:00504ED9  E8AEF1EFFF    CALL  0040408C ==> d eax
	015F:00504EDE  7457          JZ    00504F37
	015F:00504EE0  A104325300    MOV   EAX,[00533204]
 
	______________ GIF_DESIGNER_MAI!CODE+00103EC7 _______________

    Now, clear/disable previous breakpoint by typing :

	bc 00   [enter]

    Create a new breakpoint by typing :

	: bpx 015F:00504ECD  [enter]
	: u 015F:00504ECD    [enter]
	

4.  As soon as you break at memory address 015F:00504ECD, start
    tracing the codes as follows : 


    Press F10 2 times - stop at 015F:00504ED8  - display EDX register
    : D edx  [enter] ==> see that fake code at virtual address
				 0167:EDF804 
    
    Press F10 once - stop at 015F:00504ED9  - display EAX register
    : D eax  [enter] ==> kewl .... does  E1732100  at virtual				
				 address 0167:EDF7C8  has a meaning ??
				 Several lines below is your fake code.
	                 

7.  Disable all breakpoints by typing 

	BC *   [enter]
	Press F5 or X to return to the main program
     

8.  Repeat registration procedure and keyed-in E1732100 as your S/N 
    Click OK  button .....  ouchh! the screen splash and there is no 
    classic message " thank you .... " ?? .
    Just check that HELP/ABOUT menu did you see your name in there ?


9.	Where the hell is my registration code is stored ??

	The correct registration code is stored in the registry as
	follows : 
	REGEDIT4
	[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PySoft\GIF_Composer]
	"Reg_Name"="_+»-+Å@_++-a+°Q8M+-Æ¦"
	"Reg_Key"="+úO¦¦ò{îú@O¦é¶é¶"


10.  How can I practise with my own user name ?

	-  I strongly recommended you not to do this !

		Distributing your serial number is illegal and is no 
			different than distributing illegal 
				copies of the registered 
				 software. Violation of
					this rule may 
					  result in 
			temporary or permanent revocation of this
			     license and cancellation of the 
			              serial number; 
				   the original licensee
			   will also be held responsible for 
			    damages, physical and estimated.


   Do not distribute your crack release based on this tutorial, because
   you become a LAMER(s)!!!!!!!!
   ( tHATDUDE (PC97) defined LAMER(s) is the guy who sits in front of
   personal computer, using Hex Editor, ripping off other group(s)
   crack release, repacking (distro) them under his name. 
   Adopted from newsgroup alt.cracks, alt.crackers - February 1997 ) 

    More about LAMER(s):
	lamer /n./ [prob. originated in skateboarder slang]
	Synonym for luser, not used much by hackers but common among warez 
	d00dz, crackers, and phreakers. Oppose elite. Has the same connota
	tions of self-conscious elitism that use of luser does among 
	hackers.
