Not sure what you mean by "gifs" (I am specifically talking about
PNGs), but sure, I think Squeak should be able to read a PNG file, as
long as it is a valid one.  If it is 16 bits per channel, it should
downscale the depth to 8 and create a 32 bpp Forms.  This does happen
in most of the cases, but when the PNG file specifies the transparent
pixel (it is also in 16 bit value), it causes an error.
