There is a program called VisionLab, which will take GIF pictures and
dither them to 2-color (i.e. black & white).  I assume that it would work
on an SE, but you just wouldn't be able to see the color picture.  Once
it is dithered, you would then be able to save it to MacPaint.  However,
as you must realize, going from 256-color to 2-color will give you a
MUCH rougher picture.

VisionLab is available by FTP at hubcap.clemson.edu (192.5.219.1), in 
addition to quite a selection of GIF pictures.
