Does >anyone have any more info on this? What does having a 'TRUE' 24 bit image have to do with floodfills? If DCTV didn't have true 24 bit then I shouldn't be able to toss Toaster pics back and forth between it and DCTV without loss of image quality. Even if I save off the 700k+ toaster file as a DCTV Display file (300k), then reload the 300k file and save as 24bit IFF, I get the same crisp clear image on the toaster that I had originally. --------------------------------------- | patrick_meloy@outbound.wimsey.bc.ca | | 'The Outbound' BBS Vancouver BC | ---------------------------------------
