- I've gotten GifConverter 2.3b1 to read JPEG's and save GIF's as JPEG's. It
- does take a whopping amount of memory (5 megs on my IIci to convert an
- 800x600x256 GIF to JPEG format), and even then the program chops off the bottom
- of the new file, although it doesn't LOOK like it until you close the file and
- reload it....sneaky, that. So hey, is the author of this excellent (if
- bug-ridden) program out there listening to all this? Cause if he's not, maybe
- we should give him a ring...
