I'm running Netscape 2.0b4, XFree86 v3.1.2.  When I view images, the 
colors look all yucky and stippled (even if i use netscape -install 
and only view one picture). I am chalking this up to lack of dithering 
and such in Netscape.  So, I am wondering:

1) Is there any viewer out there which does a better job rendering 
pictures?  For comparison, I made a window dump and put it on 
ftp://mramirez.sy.yale.edu/pub/netscape.xwd.gz

2) If I go to 24 bit planes, will Netscape work properly? I'm currently 
at 8 bpp because of my steenking W32i board, but I am heavily considering 
buying the Xaccel (IIRC) server to fully utilize this sucker.

Thanks,
Marc.
