You can indeed view GIF images created on the IBM (or any other machine,
for that matter) using the GIF viewing/conversion utilities here in LIB 9.
(HAMGIF, VirtGIF, Hamsharp, et.al.)
As for "VGA" images, that is not a file format, it is a display mode.
There is no real "VGA" file format on the PC, only several mutually
incompatible ones used by various paint programs. I'm not aware of any PD
programs here to view any of these formats other than GIF. Also be aware
that images may not look identical on an Amiga to the IBM view for a number
of reasons, and likewise Amiga images shown on IBM machines will also show
distortions.
