Hi all I no longer have a working version of 1.8 installed so i am unable to test this But I have a customer with 1.8 and they are trying to publish our own developed application The problem is that for some reason their 1.8 MF environment cannot display the embedded Gif files that appear on our splash screen and the button menu within the application They appear as if only 256 color rather than 16 bit and as a result they look all mashed and blue i have seen these gif files appear this way when using Win2k terminal services without Citrix due to 256 color restriction of Win2kTS The customer assures me that Citrix it is set to display at 16 bit color and a screen shot of the correct colors in a word document displayed by the same Citrix server work perfectly This leads me to believe that MF 1.8 may have a problem displaying Gif files in there true color Has anyone out there ever seen or heard of such a problem.. **scratches head** its got me beat and ive been unable to find a solution via the Citrix KB Thanks Nick
