ZBoxZ (palmboxer.sourceforge.net) includes a conduit and GIF viewer -
the format decode occurs on the Palm. (Also does G3 fax and PNG - no
jpeg).
Basically you need to convert the original graphic format into a Palm
bitmap (or plot pixels or something similar). I do it on the Palm,
but you could do it in the conduit (GIF to a PDB of some form) or
using a converter (I think firepad/fireviewer does this).
