Hi psycho,

PNGs work - the main thing is to reduce them to 256 colours before using
them (I don't think you can get an pallette index number unless you do).

If you use PSP, you can find the index of a particular colour by pointing
the eye-dropper at the colour, which will return the index number underneath
the colour-picker pallette.
