Martin, I read a thread that you knew about a file called Targan.zip. I have tried in vain to find that file. Would you have more specifics about targan.zip. perhaps you could tell me where to order it. It sounds like a program I could use. Do you know o Thanks, Rock

It should be in the libraries on this forum. Try "what's new" or "hardware/drivers/utilities". I don't know the libraries numbers. It's great, highly recommended! It's for use with the targa+ boards and aapro. If I already said that forgive me. If you can't find it I'll e-mail it to you.

Thanks, I try those areas. Do you know of a program that will take a seuential number of targa files and turn them into gif files without having to do each one separtely ? Thanks Rock Richardson

I saw TARGAN.ZIP last night in the "what's new" library. With animator pro you can do a POCO, NUMPIC, PICS to FLIC with your .tgas, then do a FLIC to PICS and make the pics .gifs ! That's 2 quick automated processes for you and it really works – I just tried it. (I rarely give advice without trying it first!)

VIDEOTEX in Dallas has a program they call Chromatools that will do batch conversions of TGA, PCX, GIF, TIF, VST, AND EPS files. It will also grab video and display the images on a Targa board, crop, resize, spot meter and filters. Talk to Paul Montgomery (800)888-4336. Cost is $249. Rick

Rock, You might try Image tools from HSC software in Santa Monica, CA. It has a utility that converts tga's to gif's and you can control the color reduction. Steve Ormonde
