Hi guys,

Since I like to use free or licensed software for developing and I dont have a Photoshop license lying around, I would like to ask whether there is a free image editor capable of editing/storing .pcx files with the indexed color.

Any suggestions for a good one?

Have you tried GIMP? If so, what did it do wrong?

Well, I tried a lot of them, but none of them could do the pcx indexed color. The GIMP has a Windows port then? I'll try it, thanx..

Yes, GIMP has a Windows port. I use it for editing my sprites and merging palettes. It works nicely. :)
