- PMView will do GIFs in a window. The only problem is that it returns your
- desktop to the default colour scheme while it is running. After you close it
- down, your customised colour-scheme returns. It also screwed up my palette
- once when I used Migrate Application to set it up. The second time I installed
- it, I used the program template instead and everything is just fine.
-
- But it does GIFs in a PM window and it works very well as long as you are
- aware of the above.
