I'm not a windows user, but I still use this application. It runs just fine under OS/2. Bot full screen and seamless. On 16 color devices when loading 256 color gifs you will get either the quick dither or closest match, however when you save the file to a different format, the palette will be preserved unless of course you tell WinGif to actually dither it for you.
