What I've been doing is creating 24-bit color bitmaps in Paint Shop Pro, and then importing them into bitmap families created in the PODS resource editor. The resource editor performs the necessary color conversions, and will also scale the image down if necessary. The results are not always ideal, but are at least good enough for rough drafts during the early development, to fill up all the images in the bitmap family and check that things work on different Palm models. > Like Ben I > mostly use Paint to make mine, but it sometimes seems to get a little weird > on what is actually in the bitmaps, so I also run them through the > converter here to avoid any problems : > > http://www.evolutionary.net/html/bitmap_converter.htm Thanks, Jim. I'll have to try that. Jay Ts -- There is no path to happiness.
