Hereyee Hereyee, (the king steps up on the throne):
 
"MACDRAW conversion does exist and his been living amongst the 
hills"     

Ok: 
 
 Back in 87, a guy by the name of Scott P. Everden, at 9 Courtland Street,
 Holliston, MA 01746 [I'm scrren flipping, Weeeee] created a program 
 called Mac-Paint Viewer (this converts .PIC files to IFF and IFF to .PIC 
 [though rather poorley]).
  
 Wayne Hogue, 847 Athol Street, Regina, Saskatchewan CANADA, S4T 3B6, 
 created a shareware viewer/conversion program that will convert:
 IFF-ILBM, IFF-ACBM, SPUT and SBOB (with and without header),
 DEGAS (Atari ST), NEO (Atari ST), and MACpaint pictures (.MAC) 
 to each others format. Ps. it has the nicest persistent Begging 
 for Donations I have ever seen (has a horisontal screen melt
  and a simulated GURU begging for money). 20 dollars donation. 
   

I think that last one should have won the BADGE killer demo contest. 
 
Also remember, you need both of these if you plan to convert most of 
your files over.  
 
 I like: HAMGIF, VIRTGIF, GIFTORGB, RGB-EXCHANGE (note:TARGA, TURBO, 
 DV21, SCULPT, and one other format I can't recall; FP-unit support).
 Neat
