I haven't really been following this thread, but I'll plunge ahead anyway. Flics are limited to an 8-bit display, which means that any frame can display a total of 256 colors. Each frame can have a different palette of 256 colors, however. Practically, you can't have distinctly different palettes for each frame because it will cause the display to flicker when you play the flic. Resolution and bit depth are not necessarily related. However, you need more RAM to display the same bit depths at a higher resolution. Some boards can display 8-bits of 256 colors at 640×480, for example, but don't have enough RAM to display the same at 800×600. – Jack
