(You say you want to selectively "fade" in different colors in an anim . . .)

YES!  I have done this many times: ANIMagic is the program that you need!
It will work with DPaint anim files -- just make the anim in DPaint with
your colors at their final colors.  Then in Animagic, choose the colors,
one at a time, and change the value in the first frame to, say, white.
Then press the "pallette range" button (or whatever it's called) to get
the color to change from the white value to the final color value.  It
will work over whatever range you specify.  Each color can fade indepen-
dently, etc.  It's a simple little feature that can really spice up your
animations.  Highly recommended!  Plus, you get all those groovy customiz-
able special effects.
