bootscreen colors?

[Woomera]

hi guys

im just using my style xp to change the boot screen but when i change the boot screen it seems like the the color depth is AT LAST 256 COLOR but i know that its not like this and i wanna know how to change the color depth of boot screen to higher.

and it looks like the colors take a little change for example green goes to red

Boot Screens i thought were only 16bit.....highest maybe 256,

Actually, boot sreen images can only be 4bit (16 color). At least for images in the ntoskrnl files...

i confirm tthis, only a 16 color palette it's shown on photoshop. anything higher than that shows a black screen
