Subject:Compuserve GIF File Blunder or Folly? From:Vince Putman <PUTMV -at- MAIL -dot- SYNTRON -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 2 Feb 1995 08:23:39 CST
Hey,
Has anyone else heard of the Compuserve decision to require a license
to use GIF graphic format? I have read two articles, but considered

If anyone can add creditability to this faux pas', please bingo!
