Hello all, This is mostly for Leonard Rosenthal, since we talked about it earlier tonight, but I thought I'd send it to the list so other people could benefit from the feedback. I have to (policy, you know) convert an icon from many many colors down to 24. I gave mogrify a try, there were still errors spit out about strange colors, so I kept looking. I tried xpmtopnm and then pnmquant and then pnmtoxpm - same kind of errors. Tonight I tried convert with the -colors option, same errors. They are as below: E: kcdlabel: menu-icon-has-bad-colors /usr/share/apps/kcdlabel/icons/medium/locolor/apps/kcdlabel.xpm: #1919191919190000, #4C4C4C4C4C4C0000, #6666666667670000, #7F7F000000000000, #7F7F00007F7F0000, #7F7F7F7F00000000, #B2B2B2B2B2B20000 As the icon in question is an .xpm, I can verify that these are in fact listed as the color codes to be used. It displays fine, but I have a 24 bit display. This is a lintian error, BTW (an error checker for Debian packages). What seems odd to me is that those really don't seem like real hex color codes - can someone who knows more about colors and that end of thing give me a pointer to a good tutorial, or at least clue me in as to why I keep coming up with these colors that are not the (at least to me) 6 digit length that I'm used to seeing? I'm expecting #191919, #4c4c4c, and so on - not these 16 character-length strings. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | I'm proud to be paying taxes in the | | steve@lobefin.net | United States.
