<<If the OP was concerned about such issues then he/she should not be using GIF at all!>> This is leading me to believe that I can't use GIFs because of these issues. Is this true? I know now that Unisys (Unisys?) made a fuss about some compression or whatever, but someone told me it was still okay to use old GDs (am I naive? maybe). Is it now considered piracy to use GIFs at all? Does this mean I have to switch over to JPGs, even those images that compress better with GIFs? I just assumed we were still permitted, what with Jasc and everybody still allowing it in their products. Is JPEG (or PNG) the way to go? I hesitate using PNGs since they seem to be the least-supported out of the 'big three'. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
