I was even thinking that it wouldn't be a bad idea if the CVS version
contained full color images, like you suggest, along with a script in
the top level directory, called from a makefile if configured to do
so, that would convert all of the images in the tree to a single
palette.

As a side note, I do tend to keep my individual images saved as
8-bit pngs, simply because the file size is smaller than for 24 bit
pngs.  Doing so makes sense because even for a 24 bit image set, any
individual 32x32 image really doesn't need more than 256 colors.
