I need a little assistance please. I downloaded Viewtek 2.0 and it works great, but I cannot view gif files. I was told that 2.0 has a bug in that respect. He also mentioned to me that I should look for 1.6. I do not see it. If it is no longer available, can someone recomend something that would work for me? Thanks for any help in this matter. GOOD LUCK BEN

Ben, the only version in the libraries is 2.0. Have you checked to see if an earlier version is available on the Fish disks? If so, some of them are online in AmigaTech. If it's on an earlier disk, post a request that someone, such as Betty or Michael perhaps, upload it for you. Brian bjbart@watserv.ucr.edu

ViewTek 2.0 that's making the rounds is actually a prerelease beta version that was never supposed to be distributed. The author's permitted it to remain available, but the GIF problem is well-known. An earlier version is your best bet for now if you can find one. — Tom

Any idea when the release of ViewTek 2.0 will be available? Nick
