Re: ANN: Web Browser for 8 bit Apple //--graphics necessary?
Agreed (mostly). I think it would be nice to display GIFs if possible and leave it to the user whether to display them. Perhaps you could force the other graphics to display as GIFs or as B/W images? No images are Required, but it would be nice to have some visual indication where you are.

How much graphics are really desired for an 8-bit Apple II web browser?

The ability to click on a hot-link and jump to another page seems to be the
highest form of graphic interface necessary.  GIFS seem to come in different
formats, since some are displayable on my //e and some are not.  Frankly, I
think that I could do without JPEGS, I'd be more interested in being able to
access a site, such as eBay, than I would be to see the DHR equivalent of the
jpegs for the items for sale.

	So, it's the ease of the interface, hopefully a mouse, that makes the
web-browser more friendly, not the pretty graphics. 
	Please consider that most A2 users today have mice, a Meg of memory, hard
drives and accelerators.
