I'm trying to make a splash screen for my plug-in.

I notice that you can have a custom clut (color look-up table) for the splash screen and the main menu pictures. So here I am trying to make my splash screen. The clut that comes in the EVO Titles file is inappropiate for my picture. So I need to replace it with my own. This is where it gets tricky.

Using Photoshop I can index the color of the image (to the 256 systom palette, or a custom color palette more suitable to the picture). This is all well and good. Now can anyone tell me how to convert a Photoshop color palette into a clut resource?

Remember that two green colors are required for the progress bar.
Anyway, I don't know any easy ways of doing this, and the hard way is pretty scary, involving the use of both photoshop, graphic converter and resedit.

If you send me the picture I can convert it and create the clut for you, or if you feel really brave then I can post instructions on how to do it yourself.

A true hacker, eh? I've uploaded instructions at: (url="http://"http://members.chello.se/wmb12729/ev/clut.html")http://members.chell...29/ev/clut.html(/url)

If you don't have Photoshop 5.5 then wait a few days, 'till I have time to create instructions for GraphicConverter.
