[comp.graphics] Where can I ftp GIF images?

jgc@uoregon.uoregon.edu (James Gerald Campbell) (02/16/89)

Apologies if this is recurring - I've just started reading this group.

I have recently aquired a Mac II with a color display, and have discovered
(read become addicted to) GIF images.  I am looking for ftp archives to 
aquire more from.  I have found a small amount at sumex-aim.stanford and
have been referred to hubcap.clemson, but cannot ftp there.

Can anyone please point me to other archives?  Compuserve has a great
selection, but $12/hour @ 1200 baud is hard to take all the time (though
if anyone had a REALLY great image to recommend, I would download it).

Thanks for any responses -

I have had a few other requests for this list that I was unable to fill
since the mail bounced so here it is, the latest and bestest version of
my ftp GIF list:

  If you have any comments, corrections, new sites, etc. send mail to me
at odin@ucscb.UCSC.EDU or ...!ucbvax!ucscc!ucscb!odin.  Thanks and enjoy!
* - these files are in .hqx format.  There is a Unix program called xbin
which will take these files and convert them into regular .GIF files.
