Interestingly enough, our project is being converted into A-ware for Windows; we are using the VGA palatte (for conversion into Windows--why are there only about fifteen colors, since there is a full palatte available in Windows--these are the only colors compatable for both platforms?) So! How does this affect the file's journey from Photoshop to Authorware on a Mac, to Windows, re: palatte? > Typically images saved as 8bit pict will fit on a 3.5" HD floppy.

May I infer that using images from Photoshop could make it difficult to get my entire lesson onto a single high-density floppy, where it easily fits now, even with drawing object graphics (which slow an LC to a crawl, so I sure hope the lottery bought the kids 33MHz486s and good RAM)? Thanks much for your and everyone's advice, Mark > From: Chris King Phone: (61) 07 875 7653 > Interactive Media Officer Fax: (61) 07 875 7877 > Griffith University Email: C.King@ins.gu.edu.au > Nathan QLD 4111 > Australia > > ____________________________________________________________________________ > _ >
