` Ditto.  Where does one pick up a program that does such a conversion? 

        Try WinJPEG..... it's slow, but it's the only one I've found
that converts the colours correctly........And I have yet to find a OS/2 
.GIF viewer which displays pictures correctly with my 256 colour 
drivers....The background screen displays them fine, so it ain't a 
problem with the drivers......Anyone have a suggestion?
