The advantage to using Gifs, however, is that the document will be viewable
in all browsers that support inlined images. If you add a new format, the
document will only be viewble by a very limited set of people...
At least in terms of Mosaic, we have currently only agreed to support gifs
and xbms on all three platforms...
