This is what I'm using until I get my 2000 set up: A500, 1gigHD,
5M RAM, ECS, SVGA monitor.

Fundamentally similar to yours. Different browsers use different ways
of doing things. My mosaic uses multiview/datatypes, ibrowse uses it's
own library but can use anything else too. Inline images are scaled down to 
my 8 color WB. If I tell multiview or another viewer to use a different
screen for images, you can convert to ham6. I just leave everything in
line even though a lot of pics look like crap...
