Does GIF do some sort of compression like qq in BLU? Where can I find specific information the format GIF is in? Why do IBM GIF pictures look so nasty when they were originally a higher resolution?(ie downconversions should look good) Are there any other GS specific GIF viewers available other than SHR convert? Reply here or via Email Thanks in advance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Steele NETOPRMS@NCSUVM.BITNET Co-sysop of NCSU Apple UG BBS 919-783-9010
