Or splashw.bmp on the *10. And presumably Linux would be case sensitive too, so Splash.bmp wouldn't work either.

Ok cheers got all that but what about the bit thing I mentioned earlier and the file becoming 3 times the size with no gain what happens to the extra kb?

Picture with 256 colours with each pixel described as an 8-bit word:

eg. 10010111

Same pixel described as a 24 bit word:

000000000000000010010111

so the capability is now there for many more colours, but if that particular picture unly uses 256 colours, saving it as 24 bit will just describe those same colours with a set of longer numbers, thus bigger file size.

Hi, maybe you could give me some insight to pictures. I have a TTgo300 and when I add the pictures for the custom voices they dont display on the TT as a good color picture. I have tried various color choices 256 and true color. They look fine on the PC but not on the TT. I changed the splash screen picture and it looks fine. Also the John Cleese picture looks okay. Its hard to describe but they just look like lower quality pictures on the TT. Its not a big deal, just a HMMM.

Thanks for any help
Tom
