Christof,
I think that issue has been dropped or there'd be a real problem
on the Internet where just about everything is GIF formatted.
GIF files are always compressed BTW, but unlike JPEG there are
no options for the compression used.

>Use the WebBrowser control. Make sure you set SYS(2333) to the proper value (I can't never remember whether this one is 0 or 1, but the wrong one would crash VFP). Also make sure you insert NODEFAULT into the Refresh event. You can use the Navigate() method to display the GIF file.
