Hi Neale and all the others, 

yes of course, there are many possibilities to convert gif to iff! We
have about four utilities:

GIFMa.zoo               convert to ham
VirtGIF2_0.zoo          Show gif pictures
gif2iff2.zoo            convert to ham
HamSharp.lzh            convert to Sham
HamLab.zoo		convert to ham with float-steinberg-dithering

I think you can ftp them all from abcdefg20... or whatever the name of
that good ol' nasa server is.
In my opinion HamLab is best, because of the float-steinberg-dithering.
But we run a share-ware version: all picts are cutted to 512 pixels each
dimension.
