Psychonauts - Mr. Pokeylope

[Fro]

I need some help with this pattern. I have KG-Chart LE and it's not giving me what I want (not sure if the problem is the program or me though).

I'd like the attached picture of Mr. Pokeylope made for 14-count aida with less than 50 colors if possible. The source picture is 260x204 pixels, which is way too big. 1/4 of the size at 65x51 pixels should be good...that's about 4.8"x3.8", right?

I did my own picture adjustments in Paint.NET with an optimized palette of 50 colors (see attachments). When I put that into KG Chart, even with 200 thread colors, it comes out with 32 colors and the shell gets all screwed up (see attachments). I'm not sure what's happening. If someone can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
