May 27, 1998 - Modular Dreams Incorporated today announces the
release of the MD+F Marauder 3 Advanced Image Database, version
1.4 for IBM OS/2 Warp, featuring BBS and Web enhancements.

MD+F Marauder 3 is the only enterprise-level image collection
tool available for home and small office use.
 
Features of Marauder 3 include:

 - Support for very large (10,000 to 1+ million) image collections.

 - Fast search times - Normally under 3 seconds for a sample
collection of 80,000 pictures on a 150MHz Pentium.

 - Quick and efficient methods for examining and categorizing images.

 - Various display tools such as Browsers, Slideshow, and Choosers.

 - Advanced search using attributes of image subject (such as color of
hair, age group of subject, ...), description, or file names.

 - Ability to create virtual directories.

 - Portable, multiplatform database usable under Windows 95,
OS/2 Warp, and the upcoming BeOS version.

 - Support for named drives, devices, and media. Marauder 3 can
even display contents of removable media (such as CD-ROM or ZIP
disks) which are not currently inserted into the drive!

For current MD+F Marauder 3 users, the additional features in version 1.4
are:

 - Faster description searches. Searching using descriptions is 
radically faster than previous versions.

 - New BBS support. You can now import and export BBS description files.
BBS description files are available from many Bulletin Boards and are 
also supported by the latest version of MD+F Blitter 1.4. (MD+F Blitter
is free to Marauder 3 owners)

 - New Web support. Marauder 3 can now take template webpages and create
complete web catalogs for you. The generated web catalogs will have 
the same look and layout as your other pages. For an example of
this, please see the "Hubble Space Telescope" example in Marauder 3's
online manual. This feature is ideal for individuals or small business
wishing to display picture of items on the Internet.

 - Various enhancements. The new Marauder 3 has received many small
enhancements to its interface and search engine and is also compatible
with the upcoming PowerPC version of the product.

 - Very compact code. The new Marauder 3 executable is about 70% of the 
size of the previous version.

Marauder 3 Advanced Image Database is not for everyone. Most users
only require basic image cataloging functionality and there are many
applications available commercially or bundled with input devices to
satisfy their needs. Marauder 3 is for the remaining few. Please 
download and try to decide if Marauder 3 is right for you.

You can get current information about the MD+F Marauder 3 as well as the
executable(s) from Modular Dreams at their website located at

The website also contains usage information and screenshots of the
product. To purchase MD+F Marauder 3 contact your favorite online

available. This upgrade is available for free to current MD+F 
Marauder 3 owners. Like all MD+F products, you must register this
product online before using it. A three button mouse is recommended.
