<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbrklyn, post: 455280, member: 4381&quot;]It used to be in the days of Mosiac that the browser limited color to 8 bit with the ability to define the pallet.&nbsp; I think it had to do with how graphic cards worked, especially with X11R6 where the desktop would reserve some pallet and the applications could have some other pallets.&nbsp; SGI workstations were a little more advances.&nbsp; And even until recently Windows ran in what was called Hicolor mode and also divided palettes. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have no idea really why they did that, but todays browsers have no such limitation.&nbsp; Images in the browser now are as clear as the GIMP itself.&nbsp; In fact, the newest image standard in the Portable Network Graphic protocal (PNG) which you see me often use.&nbsp; it is a 32 bit layered standard that was designed to replace the GIF standard which had definite patent issues.&nbsp; But anything you read that says the Net is limited by a 8 bit color scheme is dead wrong.&nbsp; Firefox uses full color.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
