Here's an idea, Tony. Along with the program zip file you could supply the exact color palette you used for the startup logos. This would eliminate any confusion and users wouldn't even have to go through those steps in the FAQ article.Actually, if you use my logo editor, you don't have to do any of the steps in the FAQ article. You can just start painting, or you can just paste from any bitmap. You don't need a palette or color reduction. The FAQ is kind of obsolete now (although I did recently touch it up a bit when I linked my logo editor).
The exact color palette can be gotten by copying the default image to the clipboard and pasting it into your paint program. Now you can use the paint program's tools to build a palette in its own format.
Besides, the color palette in my logo editor is now user-configurable. After the first run, the values are in the .INI file, and you can get them from there if you want.
