Mr. Donald J Aehl, Are you certain that the Super High-Res (SHR) screen is linearized when you save the picture? According to the steps you listed in your message: > (while in the monitor) > C029: C1 <return> > 00/1000<E1/2000.E1/9FFFM <return> (monitor move command) > CREATE PICTURE,A$1000,E$8FFF,T$C1 <return> > BSAVE PICTURE,A$1000,E$8FFF,T$C1 <return> the buffer IS linear, but the SHR screen would also be turned on (making it hard to know what you're typing). Have you tried saving it with the SHR screen off, but still leaving the buffer linear-ized? To do that you'd type: C029:41 <return> (*** NOTE: Typing 'C029:01' would also turn off the SHR screen, but the buffer would NOT be linear) 0/1000<E1/2000.E1/9FFFM <return> CREATE PICTURE,A$1000,T$C1 <return> BSAVE PICTURE,A$1000,L$8000,T$C1 <return> Then, to manually load the picture you'd type: C029:41 <return> BLOAD PICTURE,A$1000,T$C1 <return> E1/2000<0/1000.0/8FFFM <return> C029:C1 <return> (You may want to try loading one of your earlier attempts using this method just to see if you get the same results as you have gotten with PaintWorks). Try this and see if it helps. This is the method I use to view PaintWorks and Deluxe Paint files (since I don't have either one of them) and it has always worked for me. Good luck. John Stephen III

This linearization, how is it do in my //gs? Is this some bazar form of shadowing? Is it better to return the memory to normal if you want to use the memory as for normal (non-displaying) purposes? My book are pretty sketchy about this. Anyone know more?
