Re: [GD-DEVEL] GDlib puts bug on tux in my win2k

thanx, gdImageCreateTrueColor works right

but why gdImageCreate fails? Why does gdImageCreate turn the other
colors in palette into grey( we can save a truecolor pic to a pic in
256-color-pallete format, but it is still colorful, and is no grey)?
And as for that foot of tux, the 'red' is actually not has the same
RGB, so how does gd mappthe range of 'red' colors to an unique one?

I cannot undersatnd the above questions and find no docs on them too.
If that is a feature of gd, I think it is better to mention it in the
document; else, I think it is a bug need to be fixed.

thank again
