#LOOKING AT .GIF FILES
4 messages in this thread
If your running WinDoze, Paint Shop Pro is one of the best PC Shareware
programs around for viewing virtually every 'popular' picture format around
(yes, even standard IFF) and you can convert any file it reads to any of the
formats it supports(PSP v2 is available in the PC Forums). Although, I've only
had limited success in creating IFF files. It also has some handy editing
function for croping, adjusting color depth, color adjustment …. (no I do not
own an interest in the product, I just find it *extreemly* useful and easy to
use). And best of all, it blows the doors off of *any* commercial PC product
out there, including Paint Brush, for speed and memory (non)usage. I've loaded
2M files in about half a minute on my 486/33 at work when I didn't have enough
resources to display the Windoze task list!! Although, PSP does not have any
painting functions, for you shareware $, you can't do any better for a picture
cropper/scaler/converter. Any every version just keeps getting better!
I only wish I could find a similar utility for AmigaDOS.
As you can tell, when I like product, I let it be know.

i prefer photofinish/painbrush/vidvue combo for windows on my pentium 90 w 8
megs of ram…and cshow for dos….for my file viewing needs…i like os2 but
it's too slow with all those tasks running about…enough to drive you
mad….windows blazes by at most apps except printing and disk intensive
activites compared to os2…

All very fine programs for what they do, but, I have yet to find *any* app that
can even come close to Paint Shop Pro v2 for basic speed, economics of memory
and ease of use. Sure, it's not a paint program, but, for 'bang for your
buck', it's great.
