I am a very amateur computer user, and I am looking for some sort of .GIF file viewer for a IBM with VGA monitor. If anyone out there can give me a hand, write/post/do anything to get me the info. Thanx very much. Don't Panic. Eric Bauer Peon

As of this posting, there are hundreds of viewers to convert/view formats such as TIFF, GIF, PCX ... The best news of all is they are FREE! Simply log on to any of the BBS's (just about) and look under Grpahics and/or utilities! It's really that simple. By the way, if you're concerned about virus potential, use a BBS you're most familiar with or check with a peer. The bottom line is your request should not cost you much other than a little more 'looking'... Good Luck.... -- BRADBERRY,JOHN L Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!prism!gt4512c Internet: gt4512c@prism.gatech.edu

One of the best GIF viewers around is Bob Montgomery's VPIC. You can get it from Compuserve or many bulletin board systems. Bob piety@hplred.hpl.hp.com (415)857-4759
