Ive been playing with the idea of creating a series of GIFs and then playing them back in sequence in a GRASP animation file (I dont know how to create a .FLI file so thats why I picked GRASP). I have the 'toolkit' that was posted a while back but there is nothing in the doc that says anything about importing images; it simply refers to .CLP and .PIC files (neither of which I know how to generate). Can someone pls tell me how I can get GIF files into GRASP so I can 'fly' them?

I know of several (ICONVERT, TGLPLUS Shareware version) but the only problem I have with that is the graphics sometimes lose some of the neatness about them in conversion. In other words, a GIF that looks great may look poor after being converted to PIC or vice versa. Robert

Is that what you are talking about? If so, contact me and I will either send or e-mail you the entire program, including some sample files with the authors' names. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - isc-br!tau-ceti!dogear!kharma!dave [dave@kharma] Dave Laird, SysOp: kharma The Computer Concern, Springdale, WA 258-7109 or 1-800-786-7109 kharma: 509-233-8474 (Local from Spokane Area) 24hrs 1200-14400 (HST)

For an example of how to use GIF images in GRASP see the veggie girl animation posted on alt.sex.pictures once upon a time. Just don't view it if you're under 18 or squeamish. -- ______________________ / __ __ \ | Michael J.
