Robbin, The Dallas Museum of Art has an Internet gopher service that provides museum information and digital images for public access. Currently I have made 25 images of permanent collection objects available in GIF89a format. Each image has a text extension block that includes the label information on the piece and a small didactic statement that was written by either a curator or museum educator. Since I started the project in late January, I have received over 800 responses from users all over the world, and the project has been noted in 3 "users guides" to the Internet, and is featured in this month's issue of "Internet World." All images are are at standard VGA resolution (640x480x256), and bear a copyright notice on the image itself and in the text comments. I also provide a small selection of shareware image viewing software for users to download. We are currently seeking funds to expand the project and provide 2-3000 images on the net. We are working with the University of North Texas on the project; the gopher address is "gopher.unt.edu." You can find the DMA under menu option 5 - "Denton, Dallas & Fort Wroth Information." regards, =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Kevin J.
