:This is getting to be ridiculous...

:All the talk about GIF pictures over the last few weeks (on Rec.arts.startrek
:and Comp.sys.apple) have really gotten alot of people excited.  I, for one,
:was really interested in being able to transfer pictures from one system to
:another.  However, I have still not been able to successfully view a single 
:graphic image!  I've tried viewing the fifteen or so Star Trek images
:(not a single one works) and now I just tried the porsche image that was
:just recently posted to Comp.binaries.apple2.

:What is going on here?
:
:Has anyone else been able to view these GIF images?
:I have been following the directions given.  Generally, I uuncode the files
:after stripping the preceding lines of text.  Then, I download the files
:and try to view them using IIGIF (which was recently posted)
:but it has yet to be sucessful. oh well...
:
:Any suggestions or advice? 

try uudecoding the file instead..  i have had no trouble reading thenm..
in a few days i'll be posting a b unch of executionered gif files that
i got from sumex for the mac..  what we really need though is a gif viewer
that supports contrast and brightness controls like vision lab does for
the mac.
