	I am a new user of hypercard and am trying to get some images
in a stack that I scanned on a PC.  I currently have them in tiff (PC)
format, and want to know: what is the smartest way then to get them to
an acceptable Mac format?

	I have tried most things that an experienced netter would do.
I looked at various ftp sites and amased various information that has
lead me on different tangents far away from my goal. I have a
description of the tiff format, and I even found an ~~PD conversion
program called Optiks, but when I selected the save in Macpaint option
I got a message that said that was only in the comercial version. ugh.

	Anyway, if anyone can offer advice on how this is usually done
I would appreciate it.
