I get so much noise it's hard to see what's what. > Cheers > A First off, I have only seen ICC used with playfield graphics (Boulderdash prototypes) and have to say that all three examples you posted were jaw-dropping in comparison. I tend to agree with Thomas about ICC's ability to deliver nice colors and greater vertical resolution (especially in the green and red sections). However, I believe Spasticolor works! It was the first one I loaded into my supercharger and I was immediately blown away by the color depth and detail of the image. There's essentially no flicker, so it doesn't give my eyes a hernia. IMHO, Spasticolor a valid, flicker-free(ish) alternative to ICC and your demo was a success. I imagine that the image also requires less ROM as well. Is this correct? That may be another advantage to using Spasticolor. I am humbled... (as always around here.) -Lee
