Hello!

I sent today, some hour ago,
the logotype for representing
"BITS" in the main menu.

I sent it as PNG and PI1.
To have the colors ordered
and as requested in the
rules, a special program will
be needed, a program that
can handle palette color
positions. Which do you use?
Neochrome doesn't offer the
change of color positions.

Greetings,
SOLO BITS (bits.atari.org)

Solo, you can change the colors index in neochrome (and neo master), not sure if it's with right click, control or shift, but you can definitely do it.

When I want to do that with neo master, i load a pic in a buffer, then choose another buffer (empty) . I put the palette in the right order in the empty buffer. the I go back to the pic buffer and use the "jack knife" tool : shortcut "J" , select the logo , go to the buffer with the good palette directly by pressing it's number on the keypad and then press F5 "remap" . and voila pic has the same colours but they are re-arranged

This is clever

Ok, here is my contribution

Yesterday I released my picture conversion tool (PictConv) on pouet: http://pouet.net/prod.php?which=54124

Since it is possible to "lock" color indexes in PictConv, I took the opportunity of this thread to show how to do that, with a small example involving XiA and Paradox logos already submitted:
http://www.defence-force.org/download/PictConvExample.zip

The resulting pictures are 6112 bytes, 32 bytes for palette, and 160*38 bytes for the picture. No header.

The batch file contains the parameters used to convert the picture, and the pictures have the additional "-p1" palette (as mentioned in the documentation).

Hope it helps

(note, make sure you have the version 0.14, I stupidly broke something in 0.13 yesterday when I submited, so I republished a version this morning - same location)
