Check in the Amiga Arts forum's libs. There should be an excellent file titled, "GIF_View". I have used it for the same purpose you wish to, that is change GIF's to IFF for use, in this case, with Final Writer. It works quite well. —Speeding along at 14400 via AutoPilot Lou Yurcsak

Louis, thanks for your advice on how to convert GIFs to IFFs. One slight problem – I have downloaded the program GIF_View as you recommended, but when I try to run it, I get the message "need arp.library". Is this something that should have come with the program? Ort can I get it separately? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve H.

Steve, you should be able to locate arp.library in the AmigaTech forum's Libraries LIB. Another bit of advice RE GIF_View, if you have a HD put it there instead of running it off of a floppy. I found 9 time out of 10 it could not convert any GIF image due to lack of room on the floppy. —Speeding along at 14400 via AutoPilot Lou Yurcsak
