Just downloaded Giffer, (finally) and it looks pretty neat. May even keep it. In either case, does *anyone* have any 640x480 256 color images? All I have been able to find so far have been 320x200. I don't have a CompuServe account so... -Sho SonicYouthREMBeatlesKateBushReplacementsResidentsHuskerDuSeveredHeadsArtOfNoise ChrisAndCoseyJoyDivisionKillingJokeLaurieAndersonWireLouReedSkinnyPuppyBrianEno (sho@tybalt.caltech.edu, sho@caltech.bitnet, ...!cit-vax!tybalt!sho)

Can anyone possibly send me any graphics files they may have in the GIF format (I already have the files from sumex and the one posted on comp.binaries.mac --- any others will be greatly appreciated)? Im trying to impress my boss with the ability to store and manipulate 256 color, MacII graphics files. Someone suggested trying CompuServe but I dont have access to it (neither does anyone else that I know). If you can help out, please send me the files (dont post them --- dont want the networked mad at me). The files can be of anything or anyone. I would rather have too many than not enough, so send all you have. Thanks in advance, Mike McCann

The download speed is too slow (we're talking something like 50% of full-speed (be it 300, 1200, or 2400). I spent over an hour pulling down 2 256-color shots and a few 16-color shots.) There's got to be a cheaper way to do this. I've never been too impressed with Compuserve, and this doesn't boost my opinion of them, either. There is, however, a *public domain* program out called Image (now ~ v. 0.62) that is nothing short of INCREDIBLE in what it can do with images. There's a small fix to be able to work with GIF files (gotta convert 'em to a PICT file and then ResEdit in the CLUT--with help of the Klutz DA), but once there there's zooming, touching up, ... So much power that I could not give it the justice it merits in a simple post. (Not that my personal babbling about it is much better... :-) I'll post it up to the net ASAP. It takes quite a bit of memory (it likes abount 1500K) but will run in less. (Some features will be disabled, like the 300K clipboard...) Oh, by the way, I'll send you a few GIFs that I have... > Thanks in advance, > Mike McCann As they say in Jamaica, "No problem, man." --chris

Speaking of GIF files, I've never been able to dig up some software to satisfactorially display them on my SE. Does such an animal exist? ...............................

Hi there,
I have some wonderful gif files on our unix machine. I wonder if there
are simple ways to transfer them to the mac format so that I can display them
on my mac.
Thanks in advance.

Got it. Thanks a lot.
