    Does anybody have a neat and nifty way of converting a bitmap to a color palette consisting of three system colours, e.g. system highlight, background and shadow.

    I want to use the bitmaps as backdrops for forms but in such a way as they blend into the existing color scheme.

    Cheers

    Memory is cheap, so more and more people run windows with more then 256 colours. So there aren't any color palettes on most systems.

    Color Palette

    Without getting hooked up in semantics, I meant "the colour palette" as defined by the bitmap itself. Using a reduced colour range. As long as I know the range of colours used it should be possible to mask through each pixel and convert their colour to one in a suitable range.
