For your information, there is an archive of high resolution (mostly
color) graphic images from Pakistan, in the GIF format, which you can
download and display or print. The images are available for file
transfer (anonymous ftp) by following these steps:
1) ftp near.ugcs.caltech.edu (OR ftp 131.215.128.204)
2) cd pub/gifs/Pakistan
3) type "binary"
4) type "get" followed by the filename of the image you want (see list
below).
5) This will transfer the file to your own host, from which you may
download it to your PC or Mac using kermit or other communications
software.
6) Then you can display the image using any of the shareware or
commercial GIF software applications available (GIFFER, GIFview,
GIFconverter, etc.)
Here is the list of images available from the caltech archive:
