I have a 256 color 40x40 BMP that i'd like to turn into an ICON.
My attempts with OS/2's ICON Editor, using cut and paste, pallete,
and various device forms, leave me with a 256 color 40x40 icon that
looks 16color, and loses the nice color gradations in the bmp.
Any pointers on which is the proper form to use and steps to get
what I want? I didnt see anything specific on Hobbes to do the
conversion, or did i miss it?  Thanks
                                     rich
