Hello.
The news of Dilwyn about the program bmp2spr moves me to inform of an article that I have written recently for my web titled "Expressing the palette of the QL", it speaks on how turning images in RAW format to SCR format.
The article explains like using a program like Photoshop to prepare an image so that it can become a QL easily.
The article is in spanish, but if somebody is interesting, surely it will be able to use an automatic translator by Internet and to read it.
It includes a program in SuperBASIC to make the very simple conversion.
This it is the link:

The RAWtoSCR idea is a very old one... as a matter of fact there is an article on the web somewhere from a guy that does what you do in perl. I use my own photoshop filter to prepare the thing. I would distribute it but it needs the damn Photoshop SDK (some 45 Megs worth of stuff) and I haven't had time (as usual) to sit down and make it in usable form
