Yes, but netscape do dithering (I think) and in big images it is
perfect doing so. I tried reducing color in icons with netpbm, but in
very little images, with strenght color contrast, results are, well,
not so good. Then if I remember well those lines limit the colormap mosaic
uses in included images, _not_ in pixmap it is using to display buttons
etc... (nice trick :-) so it look right.
I tried reducing my whole iconset to 16 colors (the same 20) and it look
quite good for almost all the icons. Almost :-). With 32 colors, if the
subset is good, I think it will look good.
