I just downloaded the binary package and found a lot of GIF files in them. I

`mozilla' shows them properly, but I was worried anyway (patents in Europe...)
 

Good point. I dropped the TCM developers a mail to find out which 
program they used to create the images. AFAIK, if it is a licensed 
program, the distribution of the images is no problem.

Otherwise I would convert them to PNG and change the HTML-pages 
accordingly ...
