- I am a SYSOP of a BBS whose primary user base are poeple with
- DOS based systems.
- One of my users has a MAC and likes to download and view GIF
- files. He uses ResEdit change the TYPE and CREATOR of the
- image file in order to view an image created with a DOS based
- image system.
- He wants to upload files that are in, i suppose, native MAC
- GIF format to my system, but he wants to convert them to a
- format that I can view.
- The type ResEdit says it is reading in (from my system) is
- text and the creator is MACA. He changes these to GIFf and 8IBM
- in order to view the image.
- He tried changing it back and then sending to me, but it
- failed.

- Please send suggestions to: speers@micro-c.mcds.com

- Thanks!
