Hi Flexy,
On 24-mrt-96 05:44:22 you wrote about Aweb - most pics are messed up !!!.

 F> I'm just surfin' the net and discovered (for testing best go to
 F> the amiga-web-directory ;) that most pictures (gifs) aweb1.0 shows
 F> are totally messed up....damn...this is an essential problem/bug !

I also had that problem, but I think I solved it. I have put AWeb on a
named public screen (created by ScreenWizard), instead of AWeb's own
screen, which has the interleaved option ON. I can remember something from
the day's of AMosaic that you should turn on interleave to be able to view
transparant gif images correctly.

 F> One dude said the reason is a too high maxtransfer-value of the hd.

Nope, that's not it, the images from the AWeb docs are fine, the images
from my local homepage (transparent gif images) were not.

 F> What should i set my screen-prefs to (how many colours ? 256 ?)

I've set it to 256 colours and it works fine.
