Thanx a lot.

I think I hacked it. ;)

[code]

| uri = 'http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~urs/oocsb/self/release/smalltalk,gif' |

(webBrowser webImageMorph copy sourceURL: uri asURL)
    buildImage.

[/code]

Getting the above outliner and using it's 'Show morph' menu option shows
the smalltalk.gif web image on screen. :) - How do I script it to show
up on screen?

BTW: What would be the best way for resizing a ui2Image? Should I invoke
'convert' from ImageMagick? Though, it wouldn't be portable that way.
