Marcus, 

A quick question, how do i set the full image graphics to "16 bit" when 
running on a 16 bit card? (I checked squeak --help but do not see an option 
like that) . 

Thanks Milan

PS: I just wanted to mention these things in case they were not noticed. 
Neither of them would stop me from using the image
