Perhaps it would be better to do the conversion
on the PC end.  What with Photoshop handy, the
image could be scaled and converted to a SAM
equivalent palette before using another utility to
write the actual file in the appropriate format.  How
many simultaneous colors can the SAM display
in what graphic modes (the FAQ is not very
explicit save the 512x192 mode)?  Can all 128
be used?  If so, what is the bit plane arrangement?
How many levels per channel (RGB)?  With 128
colors, something must be weird.  If every channel
can have the same number of levels then the total
number of colors should be the number of levels
cubed (i.e. 8 levels per channel would be 
8 red x 8 green x 8 blue = 512 colors, like on an
Atari ST).
