     I wanted to get it too but the error message came up saying that the
address was not at Tripod or I typed it in wrong when I clicked on the DOWNLOAD
NOW link. I'd really like to add this link in my Zine, but it don't work. :(

     BTW, I just noticed that the conversion examples have a lot of extended
characters in them, I wonder if the extended characters can be toggled out of
the conversion process?

Good program. Possibly you should include a color to gray scale algorithm. It is
very simple and guarantees that the conversion of colored pics is identically
with the perception of human eye.

Delphi-Code:

:function Color2Gray(AColor:TColor):TColor;
:var
:  immi : LongInt;
:begin
:  immi:=(((AColor         and $FF)*77 +
:         ((AColor shr  8) and $FF)*151 +
:         ((AColor shr 16) and $FF)*28 ) shr 8) and $FF;
:  Result:=RGB(immi,immi,immi);
:end;

(ca.: 30% red, 11% blue, 59% green)
