 Please remove GIF image files from your project and
replace them with an other format (such as PNG or JPEG).

Because of the patents (Unisys and IBM) covering the LZW
compression algorithm which are used when making GIF files,
it's impossible to have free software to generate proper
GIFs.  They also apply to the compress program.

For more information read http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html

Before releasing your project under the LGPL, please place
copyright notices and permission to copy statements at the beginning
of every file of source code.  In addition, please copy a copy of the
plain text version of the LGPL, available from
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txtinto a file named "COPYING".

For further instructions, go to

Please register your project once more with the changes
mentioned above.  

We cannot track projects that have been answered but not approved, so
we must ask you to register the project whenever you change the
registration. Make sure to apply all changes so you need to reregister
only once.

The re-registration URL found in our acknowledgement of your earlier
registration will direct you to the proper location.

Regards,

Rudy
