- There's a Commodore released GIF datatype. That's close enough to
- official for most people.

-
- Nope. It's the datatype. ZGIF 39.16 has problems with lots of different
- Gifs being used in web pages. Probably the fault of some crap PC or Mac
- image util but it's still zgif.datatype that's causing the problem.
-
- Your probably using internal image decoding with IBrowse.

- >This one can't do transparent gifs ;-)

- I'll go with the one that doesn't crash. :-)
