Hi, have just been trying this out myself today and here's what I found...if open the Bootskin program and click on Help, there is a complete tutorial there. It's as easy as falling off a bike! I have made three today and the only problem I had was that alot of images I have don't translate to 16 bit that nicely...they are sort of grainy but I am working on this. There isn't alot of code involved, so give it a try.

Careful! You want 16 colours (4 bits) not 16 bit (65536 colours).
