I thought about this problem before -- the main issue is that the anti-aliasing causes a lot of "extra" colours to be created.
The original colour reduction algorithm was to find the first 256 colours in the image and use those colours in the colour map. This completely failed to work after antialiasing was turned on - images went from 16 colours to 6,000! Most paint programs will tell you how many colours an image is using, and you can turn antialiasing on and off. The second problem is how to deal with transparancy, esp since antialiasing afects transparency. dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
