Sure. And if your wm does not do rendering, but actually tries to get all
the colors it needs for all those fancy icons, you will end up with
beautifull flashy screen. 

It has been a long time since I have used the -bbp 8 for the last time
(because of the wabi), maybe every wm does the rendering today...
