Some Linux distributions, as well as popular windows binary packages come out without the GIF plug-in. It is usually downloadable as a separate plug-in with a note for the patent issues. This can be a major PITA sometimes (you need to do GIF, and just find out the live Linux CD with GIMP on it is lacking the gif plug-in for example) > > > Sven > _______________________________________________ > _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
