| Hi Again,

| So I've got a working solution now and wanted to share it with the group. To 
get to my working solution, I had to step back in my image processing pipeline 
to where I have a grayscale image. I want to convert this image to transparent 
wherever it's black, and red where it's white. To make a long story short, I 
found the following combination of options worked for me:
| 
| #>convert test.png -transparent-color black -fill red -opaque white -map 
netscape: test.png
| 
| I think the most important thing I changed was starting with a grey scale 
8BPP rather than trying to downscale a 64BPP image.

| Thanks for the help, sorry for being such a noisy list user.

Now that you defined your problem exactly, I can give you a solution with
semi-transparent red for pixels that are grey.

See IM Examples, Masks as Colored Shapes
  http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/channels/#shapes

Try...
  convert test.png +clone +matte -compose CopyOpacity  -composite \
              -fill Red  -colorize 100%    red.png

This will ensure any anti-aliased edges remain anti-aliased.

Of course it has semi-transparency, which in other discussions you said
you did not want.  So I am glad if you solution produces PNG8 images
with 256 color colortables.


Is that the case?  That is you have 2 color images with 256 color
colortables.

If so -map will be extremely more important to Animation color reducion
than I previously throught.  Seeing it is the only way to convert
images, into indexed color images in memory.
