I don't think that it is the current GIF standard. It is the way that
the graphical browsers handle these GIFs. A new GIF standard is the
farthest thing from what the WWW community needs. I say convert all of
the GIFs that you have to JPEGs anyway. With CompuServe going haywire
over trying to charge a fee for use of their standard, who needs it.
