I have just downloaded a faction editor for SMAC, and made my own faction, the SocialDemocrats. When I edited the socialdemocrats.pcx file and the two other files, it just did not work.

My cities now have a big blue square as backcolor of the city graph. And my portrait, which was a red rectangle with the picture of my face inside, is shown as a BLUE square.

I do not have PhotoShop or anything like that. I edited the file in Windows Xp-free software Microsoft Photo Editor. And to draw the graphics, I used Paintbrush.

What's the color of the pink "transparent" color? I mean... whats numbers do i put in RGB, light, and the other color numbers to re-create the pink backcolor?
 
I do not have any software saying "color 255"or anything like that.

I have Microsoft Photo Editor and Paintbrush. I need to learn how to edit image files without getting weird colors.
