This is a bit of a deja vu!

Nobody, replied to my messages either!!!

I was looking for an Apple II graphics program to view and possibly convert HGR
and DHGR graphics to and from a PC.

Your program would be splendid, if it was available for my PC. I guess, another
reason to own a Mac! :-)

Can your program also convert standard PC pictures 320x200 GIF or JPEG to the
smaller Apple II HGR or DHGR? So far, with the tools I got, the results are
choppy pictures and any text on the graphics screen is unreadable on the Apple
II HGR screen.

I want to create the graphics on my PC and convert them back to my Apple II
without having to patch choppy images. Considering the limited colour range, I
probably, colourise them on the Apple II, too...

If only, I could find a way to do it easily...

Thanks,

Jeff.
