Patrick Mueller commented on CB-1495:
-------------------------------------
I don't think converting to an indexed palette for those images will be helpful
anyway. The dark eye area of the robot has all kinds of shading in it, and
there's a shadow under the robot also. I think to create a indexed palette
image of the robot, we need a robot with no shading in it whatsoever, and then
we can just plot that on top of gray backgrounds to produce splash screens.
Perhaps something for later.
The images that you committed seem to be HUGELY smaller though, which is great!
