Michael, If you put your pallete (.COL file) in for a custom pallete , when you render, no matter WHAT you render, as long as you render to an 8-bit format, that image will have your custom pallete. << I'm using paledit.exe that was packaged with video for windows to make custom palletes in windows>> good, then load up a flic in Ani Pro and save out one frame as a .gif image (this image will hold your pallete info), load it into BitEdit, run PalEdit from within BitEdit and save the pallete file from PalEdit (.pal file) <<which will later be used in authorware to run animation at VGA 256 color without changing the system software colors use in menus and buttons. >> I do this on a daily basis, and I use a combo of 3DS/PhotoSlop/Bit-PalEdit to get what I want. i trust this steers you in the right direction, -Kyle
