Re: [vb6]Alpha Image Control (PNG, AniGIFs, TIFF, & more)

I'd think that palette order would optimize file size. Makes perfect sense to me.
Regarding 16pp. If I get truly interested enough, I'd create a 4x4 & 8x2 555-format 16bpp pcx and see if any of my few viewers can read it. If it can, I might support the one(s) recognized. But that will wait until I have time to play & feel like it

FYI: With your zip... Using the badly compressed one, when saved via my current routines, it saved it at 10k. Not too bad. The palette is sorted numerically; otherwise no optimizations made. I don't plan on making it a goal of the AlphaImageCtrl to optimize palettes. The user will have the option to provide their own palette when saving, so I'll leave that to them.
