I cannot direct you to an FTP site, but I can tell you where to find the
program.  In the AmigaArts Forum on CompuServe, Library 9, you can find
HAMGIF which will display these pictures.  We have a new viewer that
is currently in Library 1, but will eventually move to Library 9.  It is
called VIRTGIF.  VIRTGIF will display GIF pictures that are larger than
the Amiga screen will display, and you can use the cursor keys to move
around in them.  In the PICS forum on CompuServe, there is yet another
Amiga viewer for GIF called AMGIF.
