	When it comes to GIF format, the file is universal. I've scanned in
GIFs using a PC, and ran it through Cshow. Then uploaded it to my account,
then downloaded it to a Mac, then ran it through GIFConverter. You don't lose 
any of the boldness or texture of the file. So, in that sense, it shouldn't
matter.
		I hope that helps you!!!
