re: reported problems with GIF display in Argo with display set to 256 colours.

Opera 6 (www.opera.com) has similar problems in displaying JPG images in 256 
colours
(but OK at the higher colour settings).  It was reported as a problem in the 
Beta
version, but is even worse in the full release version!  It seems there are 
problems
interfacing displays at 256 colour, and some software writers are stopping to 
bother.
Windows defaults to 256 on installation, although as pointed out with modern 
display
boards there is no resource overhead in setting to high colour modes.

Opera 6 as a browser is excellent. Advertised as 'the fastest browser earth', 
you
only realise it is when you go back to IE which is decidely pedestrian!!  Well 
worth
having a play with.
