Mr_Mr_Mr:
I think Mrmonkey91 already has all this figured out matt, no need to help him. Unless he finds it usefull

Toxicstriker91:
He isnt mr, matt if it can use larger palette colors(indexed) it is going to be useful.
Edit: Actualy matt did it. Monkey this is the pic we need. I opened it with gimp and there were colors from all varieties of colors (all rows).

Mr.Monkey:
Damn, amazing Matt, thanks for your help :P So, Tox, you say it's good, that means we do this one? You make the shadows first again, or do we start right on? =D Also, 207 colours XD that's just ridiculous, more than half as much extra colours as we used in the previous one. Especially the leaves look much better now. Now the only thing remaining is how to layer it so that the lower layers don't get covered by the high towers of water if you look at the corners. -Done- There will be almost no towers sticking out of the pic now, so there is no loss in detail when looking at the corners. The block layers in the '(shadow/water) water leaf block' and '(shadow) leaf water block' rows will be lost though, but there is such a minimal difference in colour there that it does not really matter.
@Matt this thing you gave is still not the ultimate fix, it still only allows indexed lists of 256 colours. The only special is that the palettes it can use can be bigger. The plug-in I got can handle this though, because it does not change the mode of the image to indexed, but leaves it in the regular rgb. Still glad we got something to work with till that one releases the function to use custom palettes though, so again, thanks a lot  ;)
@Mr It's better to help then to flame... what he had turned out to be a quite good temporary fix, so please don't demotivate people to help. I think I can still tell for my own whether it's helpful or not.
@Tox Could you also make a map of the 'water water (leaf) block' rows, like the shadow one, but then for where to place the water that sticks out of the pic.

Quite glad I was able to help :-)

If it's not too late I did a little more experimenting with it (kinda hard to use since it's photo manipulation all done through the command line) but I figured out how to change the dithering method it uses:

Original Riemersma Dithering:


207 colors

FloydSteinberg Dithering:


194 colors

Personally I think the FloydSteinberg method produces a better result, even with less colors but of course the decision is ultimately yours :)

Mr.Monkey:
Is there a way to use 'Stucki' or 'Sierra Lite' dithering, they have even better results then Floyd Steinberg. I really like the improvement on the right cheek already. Also the face is much smoother.
