In a previous post, someone said this... "    In a couple of words:  you can't.
AWGS must use 640-mode graphics, and
320-mode pictures (which is what I assume the Allison pictures are in) don't
look very nice at all when converted to 640-mode.  There aren't nearly enough
colours, and AWGS doesn't do multiple palettes.

Ummm.... Brian, the pictures from Allison can be used.  They must be converted
first, though.  The methods I outlined and the programs I mentioned do jobs
ranging from outstanding to ok...  Additionally, pictures made with Allison
(NOT Allison/3200) use a single palette.

Hope this clears up some confusion.
