Don't forget cockpit lines - gona be a godsend if we start playing with padlock and/or moveable view.

You'll need to copy the exact same palette as the original ani.

For one thing, you'd have to be squinting against the glass for that to fill the screen.  For another, the bottom of the texture - i.e. the player hud - is cut off the bottom of it anyways.

You using photoshop for the individual pics(before combining into a ani)?
If so, Photoshop has the most irritating bug with NOT saving your picture in 8-bit colours when you just use RGB colours.

Use the Mode->Indexed colors (Windows of MAC OS palette)

Irfanview can dither images to 8 bit (256 colors) - it's under Image, Decrease Color Depth.

It can also do some palette exporting, but I've never tried to change image's palettes to be the same across multiple pictures.

i do have irfanview. although i can't figure out how to work out the saving thing... the anibuilder says i need a version 5 8-bit per pixel or something like that.

NOPE!
I have Ifranview and alltough it's a great program(espacially for converting)  it sometimes acts screwy. Like I have a nameplate texture (pcx, 24bit) I wish to reduce the depth.
the green bakground (0, 255, 0) changes to 4, 254, 4 and it's not invisible anymore!

You have to do something with a setting. I think it's 'Use Windows Colours'...

It's a save file setting, smartass. You should see it when you save the file.
