- Hi again, I've received and seen several suggestions, all of which are of
- the "cut and paste" variety. This will work, but it isn't what I'd hoped for.
- There are over a hundred gifs I'd like to paste into a series of .bmps, so the
- c&p system, while creative, isn't practical for me.
-
- PROGRAMMER CALL!
-
- How about somebody writes a program which will allow you to select files from
- a menu window and then patch them into a montage of pictures which can be
- saved as any of the recognized formats?

- PS, to BMR, I TOLD you in the orginal post that the .gifs weren't "exotic"!
