Actually , I have found that the HAMGIF I use is actually pretty braindead about the pallett it uses. i have several VERY GOOD VGA pictures, and the HAMGIF program manages to munge them so they look like 16 colors (all fleshtone the same ect) -- if someone could email me that latest version it will save me the trouble of writing one. Also , can any >SHAM do 320x400??? **************************************************************************** * " Salad isn't food, salad is what food eats.
