Hello all!

Before the new year, I posted a question about how to download .gif files to
the Mac. Well, the answer, as so many of you told me, is to make sure to set
the file type to BINARY before transferring the files. Gifs are stored in
binary format and if you don't do that then you lose the 8th bit and it
corrupts your file. Just type BINARY while logged on to an anonymous ftp site
will set the file correctly. I transfer the files first to my Vax and then to
my Mac. To do the latter transfer, I just use Kermit and make sure to set the
file to Binary (NOT MacBinary). Some of you asked where I had found certain gif
archives. Well, here is the latest list that I have. I usually go to
wuarchive.wustl.edu. They have an INCREDIBLY large selection.

Good luck to all you Giffers out there and THANKS again to EVERYONE!!! who
answered my query.
