Drippydonut, that's an excellent explanation. if I ever get round writing
an improved helpfile, I'll copy it, OK? And a tip to bowzil:
Copy all images that share a palette (the list is in the helpfile) into one
image in photoshop before editing. E.g.
- Create a new image 100x176 pixel, true colour, not palette based.
- Copy the images of a shared group into it, e.g. the Background Navi
Left, Middle and Right.
- Modify them at will, or draw completely new designs of the same size.
- Now reduce the colour depth to 8 bit, palette based.
- then cut the three images from the big one, they now all use the same
palette.
- save as gif files, to make sure that they remain 8 bit.
I don't have photoshop, so I can't give you details on how to do it, but
it should be easy enough, it is in paint shop pro.
