#GIF 87a / 89a Problems
4 messages in this thread
Not long ago, I downloaded a GIF from the Graphics Corner forum. It was a
640X480X256 GIF and it was viewed with ease using HAMGIF.
I attempted to convert it to Amiga format using HAMSHARP, as I have done
in the past with all GIFs. This time however, it wouldn't convert
properly. My assumption is that *this* GIF was in the new 89a format and
not the old 87a.
If this is true, will there be or is there a new conversion or viewing
program for the new format?

reply or confirmation of any kind. What's the deal guys?
David,
ASDG's Art Department Professional (ADPro) will load both 87a and 89a GIF
images (ADPro manual, section 13.4, p109).
I know of no currently available PD or freely distributable program that
will convert 89a GIF's. Perhaps someone in the AmigaArts forum might know
of such a program.

DAvid – maybe no one knows the answer? I know that I skipped your message
because I don't write such programs and could not speak for those who do.
But – I do hope someone can answer.

David,
Try asking the graphics folks over in AmigaArts Forum.
