i think i just sbout got this done but i have come accross a small problem.

i have edited the pcx file,changed the civl text doc

my problem is this when in the editor the resources have a pink background,when i go to the game they have a black background.what did i do wrong?i think it has to do with the 256 color pallett.the resources show up in the civlopedia in the game and it does not crash on me when i select them for viewing.
 
I ran into this problem before but I fixed it. Unfortunately, it seemed like such an easy fix that I promptly forgot how to do it. I think what I did was open the resource icon file in Photoshop and I made SURE to ONLY USE COLORS that are ALREADY IN THE PALETTE. Using any other colors will create problems. Doing the editing is easy in Photoshop because it recognizes .pcx files as indexed color files and doesn't try to give it a new palette.
