I followed youre step to manually implement Gimp palette drag'n'drop ;) [attached], That may have set up the right palette, but that didn't make my splash viewable ! I wonder why do is see nothing at the screen. > I would suggest staying away from command line tools to edit these > pics because of the small size, aspect ratio/scaling issues and the > limited number of colors. Maybe. I find that funny to search the best way to automatis that stuff. Especially thumbnailing, building and installing. I may will try to implement a way to modify the palette in the .c, as it is far easier. -- Verso l'Alto !
