-I- Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Hi im quite new to image-editing / creating. so i kind of downloaded Paint.NET because its free and seems so mutch simpler to use than PhotoShop or PS Pro and stuff like that.. so im now at making some logo's and trying to learn that for example to use in windows (resources) like visual styles or bootscreens and even more. but to do this i require some 4bit (16color) and some 8bit (256color) and some 16bit(way more colors) images but some how up until now PN only seems to support 24bit images (Bitmaps) so my question how can i create my images and 'scale???' them to 256color palat's or even 16color palat's lots of thanks up front....

BoltBait Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Oh, sorry, I should have been more clear. Once you have saved it in .GIF format, load it in MS Paint and save it in BMP 256.
