Sorry if this : seems like a stupid question or if it's in the faq's but I'm lost. =) You need to call set_palette(palette) whenever you want to change the palette. But I get the impression that you're trying to use different palettes in different areas of the screen - AFAIK this isn't possible in the standard 256 colour modes. You'll need to use the same palette for all your images. -- George Foot Merton College, Oxford.
