[][ hi ...

yep ... the gifs are ace ... very nice ansi stuff

i've found that too ... reduction to 2 colours for best effect ... and
size reducing pics down to 79 ... a pain even with good tools
i have looked at mapping files for the converter i have : g2a.exe ...
altho' i found changing it didn't see to help very much
this is a conversion i attempted ...
