Arnd or others, Thank you for the reply. I will try this.
My original data is in Tiff format. Does anyone know if there is a best setting for the outputformat type and imagemode? If I use png24, what would be the best imagemode? What are the positives and negatives of using an outputformat type of png256? Would mapserver be slower producing the image? I will play around with different settings for this and see if I can get the colors right and also good performance.
