### PSP Palette Tutorial by SLotman

This tutorial is using Paint Shop Pro 7 as a guideline. Newer/older versions may differ a little.
It's a pretty simple and easy process, let's start opening an image:
STEP 1 - Making the Palette
If the image does not have a palette yet, we continue, if it has, you can skip to the next step.
Click on Colors->Decrease Color Depth->256 colors.
This dialog will show, with different options. Set as above (you can experiment with the others later) to optimized octree / Nearest color and click OK.
Congratulations, you just made your palette!
STEP 2 - Changing the Palette
Click on Colors->Edit Palette to show the palette window.
Now, with the window open, move your mouse over the color you want to change and click on it. The color will be selected on the window. You can also direct choose any color on the window palette by clicking on them
Now, double click the color you chose, and a standard "color picker" window will open.
On the color picker, just click the color you want to replace the old one, and click OK.
You see that the image already changed. Change as many colors as you want (you can select another one, double click it, etc), and then click on OK to finish and apply the changes.
You're done! Just remember to save the image in a format that supports palettes, like PCX (best for MUGEN), BMP, GIF (good for animations) or PNG (best to post static images online).
Also keep in mind that the color 0 (the top-left square) will be the transparent color in MUGEN - so nothing on that color will appear on screen.
