KG Chart or PC Stitch?

Post by rbaron »

Which is better in terms of colour accuracy when I import pictures and sprites?

I think it depends on the colour base of your sprite.

Both are getting increasingly inaccurate in my opinion! But mostly for very simple sprites I use KGChart, and PCStitch for more complicated images. However, I always try my images out in both to see what kinds of colours they give, and go from there. :D

Thanks! Lately, I've been using KG, and then eyeballing the simpler sprites from the colours it's given me because it's been giving me rather bold colour choices for every thing, so I wondered if PC would be better.

I think that's a wise thing to do whatever program you use!

But yeah, KG does get a bit bold in it's choices. PCStitch is a little better, but recently has been throwing up all kinds of wrong and making things seem rather dull. Somewhere in the middle, with a fair bit of eyeballing, seems to be working best for me right now. :grin:
