   I somehow missed getting the gamegiveaway that featured the "Glamour" jigsaw program(through Fly games), and the Christmas one but this week I did dowload the "Family jigsaw" and am very glad that I DID!
   I love the selection of photos, and after I learned that I could either change the music(or delete the file as I prefer no music with jigsaws)it was great.

   I also forgot to mention that one can join a fabulous(FREE) jigsaw GROUP through yahoo groups; the owner has the Jigsaws Galore program and generously makes new jigsaws for her members almost daily, plus there is an extensive data filebase where she stores the puzzles so one can have as many as one wants!
   The pictures are just about always wonderful but of course one can pick and choose and she gives a preview in each email.
   She has expanded so there are three groups but I will just link the latest and then you can chose which ones to join from there.

   Have fun!

   Hi Alianthia,

   I have just joined the group and am a little lost. Is there an application that I must download for the puzzles or can I incorporate them into the Jigsaw program from Fly games?

   Appreciate any help. Thanks.

   Tiffany,

   All the Fly games are basically the same game with a different "envelope" graphics. You can copy the "box" folder and all it's sub folders (the actual puzzles) into the corresponding folders of another Fly Game jigsaw puzzle. That is what I have done with all four of the Fly Game puzzles (I kept the original form as well) into Infinite Jigsaw Puzzle which is a Fly Game but it has a slightly different envelope. It even has an options menu where you can turn off the music rather than having to rename/remove the mp3 files. All 5 games combined is 730 uniquely named puzzles. I'm hoping that means 730 unique puzzles.

   When you copy, I don't know if it will handle other folder names so I have copied the files form each sub-folder to the corresponding sub-folder of the target game.

   You do NOT need any program for them, as they are "gifts" that the owner makes with HER program.
   They DO NOT incorporate into the Fly game program.

   Also you will be getting the emails with her new puzzles quite often.

   have fun!

   Thanks for that Alianthia. I am yet to join the other groups but will do so. I wasn't sure on what to do. I am thinking of keeping them into a file for later use. Is that better or is there a better way to do it.

   I also found there was way too many pieces. Even when I enlarged them. Do you have any tricks that help you. Thanks for your help. :)

   Oh good!
   That is what I did, just save the zip files ..
   Yes some are a bit overwhelming, but if you look at the help section, it tells one how to just show the borders, and then go from there.
   Unfortunately you cannot change how many pieces there are, though but just look around on the tool bar, there is a place to change the SIZE of the pieces which MIGHT help.
   PLUS you can use the "boxes" to put pieces in of one colour until you are ready to place them. Just look around, and you will find lots of tips, etc...
   You are welcome!
   :)

   Tiffany, I saw on her email that the owner of the group has the files thumbnails so that you can see what the file looks like(especially for the older puzzles..
