[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="Mischief Maker"]Because if I can't dissuade you from that idea, perhaps <A HREF="http://www.seanbaby.com/nes/basedoncrap03.htm">Seanbaby</A> can.[/quote] I'm going to be doing that, yeah, but there's a great deal of manipulation before I go to Mode->Index on Photoshop and get the four colors. The in-game graphics are at 600x450, but when I start with images that are 3000x3000, it leaves me a great deal of room to set things up. If a photo is magenta-heavy, I can add some cyan color balance to make it look better. I am also learning that you can effectively get a pretty good brown from white, magenta and cyan. I don't remember games blending that back in the day. (I do recall blurring to produce gray.) ICJ[/quote]
