Having big trouble converting, however. Scarecrow's FAQ mentions that some programs capable of viewing GIFs can save in the 87a format (what am I talking about?). Please, which programs? Can I find them in Turbogopher? What are the magic commands? I can convert to GIF, TIFF, PICT, etc, but having trouble beyond that point. I'm on a Mac Quadra 800, and I can use Canvas 3.5, Adobe Photoshop and Omnipage Pro, among others. No luck so far. Can someone give me simple instructions, as though speaking to a small child? Maybe I could send the GIF to someone who has the inclination to mess with it? Many thanks, and Happy Solstice, Phoenix
