Sources to GIFUtilities, an ActiveX COM for use in Active Server Pages to process GIFs online, including merging two GIFs into one. The ability to merge GIFs is especially useful to let you build an icon bar dynamically. Each icon exists in a separate GIF. The user can then select which icons to include in a "template" GIF that will hold the icons. This generates one GIF, which is a much faster download than multiple icon GIFs. The sources include the Visual Basic project and class files. VB 6.0 is required to compile the sources.
