Where can I obtain a good speedy GIF viewer and a GIF-to-IFF converter? I've been making do with "VirtGIF" but it is painfully slow...

I've used a viewer called "Giffy2" or somesuch, which as I recall, is somewhat speedier than VirtGIF. Generally, I just use HamSharp to convert it to IFF. Not spectacularly fast, but you only have to do it once. Also works well on a 1-meg machine. HamSharp is on ab20.larc.nasa.gov. Check FILES.Z for the location. Giffy2 might be there to, but why bother? -- Dave Schaumann | We're so sorry, Uncle Albert. But the kettle's dave@cs.arizona.edu | on the boil, and we're so *easly* called away...

You then take the RGB image and use The Art Dept. or DigiView to manipulate and convert the output to ham or any other resolution.
