Chris,

 My major problem is that I only have one meg right now and two 880k drives
.  I cant even upload them to my amiga.  Can someone crunch this file a little
more ?  Or can some one just compress it to only a couple of things that I wouldneed to run it.  I only want it to change Iff's or other pic. formatts to gif
file.  ???
