Personally, I would have no use for GIF unless I can get IFF out of it. In other words, is there a program that does exactly the opposite (maybe even *gasp* the same program)?!? GIF to IFF? >There is an *IBM* program called IFF2GIF available that will do... Oh yeah, and for my needs I would need it to run on the Amiga side. If I had such a thing, then I could view all the pretty GIF pictures. Anyone know anything about GIF? Were they short-sighted enough to allow only 32 or 64 colors in the spec? If it allows 4096 different colors or more, then we could write a GIF -> HAM! William LeFebvre Department of Computer Science Rice University
