[40m[2J[2;1H[5C[0;32mIn order to use VIEWPIX to see GIFs online, your system must have the[3;1H   ability to display VGA graphics with a resolution of AT LEAST 640x480x256 in[4;1H   color (or 640x480x64 in greyscale).[5;1H[5CYou'll also need a[A
[23C memory resident program that can intercept a download[6;1H   data stream and display the graphic.  One such utility is SHOWGIF.  This[7;1H   GIF utility needs to be configured for your system.  See the SHOWGIF docs[8;1H   for an explanation of[A
[24C how this is done.[9;1H[5CAfter you've configured SHOWGIF, install it as a TSR (memory resident) by[10;1H   typing "SHOWGIF /r".   Now, call up your favorite communications program[11;1H   and call this BBS.  Enter the VIEWPIX door, choose "C"[A
[57C to tell VIEWPIX[12;1H   how you would like your "preview" graphic to look, mark as many files as[13;1H   you wish, and "V"iew (download) them.  If all goes well, SHOWGIF will[14;1H   intercept the data stream on your end and show you the graph[A
[63Cic right online![15;1H[5CVIEWPIX sends the "preview" files with "unique" DOS filenames.  You should[16;1H   have a file in your download directory with an 8 character name ".GIF".  This[17;1H   file is actually a GIF image composed the way you[A
[52C told VIEWPIX to make it.[18;1H   It can be treated as any regular GIF image.[19;1H[20;1H[14CIf you need further assistance, contact the sysop.[21;1H[0m
