Sirs; Your idiotic thought are reminiscent of the European Market. They set the standard for Bananas and Strawberries so Bananas over so long could not be called Bananas and Strawberries over so small could not be called Strawberries. If it tastes like a strawberry and looks like a strawberry, it should be called a strawberry. So what if it does not meet your size STANDARD. If I am licensed to use GIF, who are you to tax me for using it? If I do not want to use GIF, Who are you to tell me that I am wrong and force me to use a standard that you then think you can collect fees from? If no one can read my Web Page because I am not using standard formats, Who do you think I am trying to display my information to? Maybe I want to use a non-STANDARD format as a type of encryption. Get off our backs and go to work and make an honest buck. I work for my money, you do the same. Ivan Collver
