Hello everyone, 

  I am looking for information for various picture formats, for both
the ST and other computers..  Specifically for the ST, I am looking for
PD C or Assembly source code to display Spectrum pictures.  I hav e 
seen several programs that display SPC pics, but I'm not quite 
experienced enough on the ST (yet!) to write my own Spectrum display
algorithm..  

  I also need the GIF format (it's not in the Picture Formats file
that was posted recently), any 8-bit formats (Koala, Micropainters,
etc..), and any Mac format(s).  (just the description of these
should be fine).. 

  Also, what ever happened to PicSwitch?  The latest version I saw
was 0.7, with a promise of a newer release.  Well, that never seemed
to happen!  Is the source code available??  Is the author on the
net? (sorry, I'm not on my ST or I'd look to see who he is)..

  Thanks for any help,
