Perhaps i did not explain well the other day, but i think that the
problem appears in the ImageQT module of PIL, the piece of code that
take charge to convert an image in palette mode to QImage in PIL is:
elif im.mode == "P":
format = QImage.Format_Indexed8
colortable = []
palette = im.getpalette()
for i in range(0, len(palette), 3):
colortable.append(rgb(*palette[i:i+3]))
But if i change the "palette = im.getpalette()" by:
palette = im.palette.getdata()
palette = palette[1]
Then i don't get the OverflowError that i commented on my first
message, because of that i wrote over a "possible bug" in PIL, with
the hope that a developer of PIL could clarify this subject.

Yes, of course, it's a perfect and elegant solution (if you don't need
to manipulate the image in palette mode with QT), only fix the bug
could be better.
Thanks, Chris!
