What is the correct method for ftp'ing GIF files?  I heard that there was a
GIF archive at hubcap.clemson.edu.  So, I have Vision Lab and I thought I would
add to my collection.  Unfortunately, Vision lab always comes back with an error
reading "Bad LZW block. Bad GIF File."  Now, I have tried using both ASCII and 
binary mode, and downloading using kermit by both text and image transfer and 
nothing seems to please Vision Lab.  Can someone help?!

Thanks oodles.
