Okay, so how would I redirect _some_ GIF files but not others? Because
I'm working with a large number of files that have varied names and
directories, I (believe I) can't make a pattern that will match only
the files that need redirects. 

If there were a way of matching the file name to an element in a list,
then I could redirect that to a corresponding element in a list. (This
is beginning to sound like something you might do with PHP. My
company's hosted server doesn't support PHP. :-(   )

Yes, but that's not the issue. I didn't merely change the extensions; I
frequently changed the file names so that they made more sense (to me).

So that's why I was looking for a multi-line .htaccess file.

If you have a clue on how to approach matching a file name against a
list of file names, please hit me with it!
