Get ImageViewer from the Archives (we've got it here at
sonata).

Install it in /LocalApps or your Apps directory and
Update your Workspace (Command-u).

Name your files to end in .gif.

Double click on them and they'll show up on the screen!

From there you can save them back out, but if you plan to do a
lot of conversion, get something like PixelMagician
(demo on sonata as well).
