Anyone know what the 256 colors are? -Hyad 02:33, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
8-bit color is 256 colors, it's the same thing. If yyou're searching for the colors themselves just take a look at the palette on the page. --Dandin1 16:29, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
How do I change my computer monitor to display 256 colours? (I only seem to have the option of switching to 16 colours, and I'm sure my monitor can display in 256 colours.)Siri 19:55, 29 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ain't no such thing as 8-bit truecolor. Truecolor because it's true to reality. Only 24-bits and upward can be that. For the meaning of, "not using a colormap" the term is directcolor, because it specifies the colors directly.
Color Question
Hey, I realize that this is not exactly the forum for this question, but I am looking for a relatively obscure answer that no one has been able to help me with so far. I'm trying to make stimulus for a psych experiment using CIE space, so I made it in photoshop with LAB color, a CIE space, but I can't save it as anything but a Tiff which most other applications won't load. I can save it as an 8-bit LAB color tiff, which will sort-of load, or a 16-bit RGB color .PNG file, which will load. The problem is that the two look very different, and I dont know which is closer to the true 16-bit LAB color. Any ideas?
thanks and sorry for posting a somewhat irrelevant question here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.246.227.11 (talk • contribs) 2006-10-18 (UTC)
Conflated with 8 bits per component too easily?
Or is it just me? I think there should be at least a mention of formats that encode 8 bits per channel/color, since they are much more prevalent. kumowoon1025 (talk) 07:41, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
