I want to have color pictures as startup screens an desktop
but I encountered some problems. My questions: How can I make a
a startup screen from a res=0 pict converted gif? Do I always need
a cdev like ScreenMaster?
 
For the desktop picture I used !DeskPict. But in both cases the pictures
were displayed with the standard color lookup table (not the one of
the original gif). I think that it should have it's own clut, right?
But how do you get a clut in a pict file which is a conversion
of a gif with Giffer 1.06. Where is the color information in a pict file
 
If anybody knows the answers to my questions, please let me know.
