Turn your desk 90 degrees?

Honestly just create a "total color usage" (i.e a 64x64x64 array of
longs) and select the 256 most used colors.  Then dither your images
(i.e closest mean deviation for the RGB triplets) to fit the same pal.

If you're smart in the future you would use the same palette :-)
