Color=colour
Tire= tyre
Practice=practise
As if figuring out Zubish wasn't hard enough.

Practice is a noun, practise is a verb.

Number One requirement is that it is in 4-bit colour.....that's 16 colours total.
If an image can be 'dithered' to 16 colour palette and look OK then the Bootskin will be too ...
