You mean Patents -- nobody "infringed" the copyright of anyone with the GIF issue, just bludy patents. > is to create uncompressed gifs. IIRC even this won't help as the GIF format itself was patented by Compuserve (while its compression by Unisys). This stupid thing will bite us for a good time. We should kill these technologies while they are still young (until/if some patent reform takes place). ---------------------------------------------------------------- Oron Peled Voice/Fax: +972-4-8228492 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.actcom.co.il/~oron "write your own operating system.
