HAM colour problem, HELP please?

[volvo_0ne]

OK without trying to explain too much, why does ....



Screen Open 1,320,200,16,Lowres
Flash Off : Curs Off : Cls 0
Locate 0,16
Centre "A Picture of Our Cat!"
Screen Open 0,320,121,4096,Lowres
Flash Off : Cls 0
Load Iff "Tango1.ham"

result in the upper HAM picture having the horrid grey into the borders on WinUAE?

I WANT IT TO BE BLACK!!!!

I think it has a lot to do with the palette order, but what is the solution?

Any help would be much appreciated

oh yeah, heres a screenshot.....................

Well, Amiga's show colour 0 in the border by default.

So it should be fixable by making sure that colour 0 of the HAM palette is black (or whatever colour you want your border to be).

Well

Photon Paint 2.0 then change to standard palette then remap the picture and resave.

It changed colour 0 to black(which is all I needed), however there IS evidence of it in the output picture, but I can live with it in this case.

Not sure how it would hold up in fleshtones or something like that, maybe I'll try it sometime .

Does Photon Paint 2 handle HAM?

Well it did the job for me (infact I got the idea from the "Amos the Creator" manual by Mandarin) because none of the other HAM programs I tried worked without devastating image corruption (however that may have been down to my unfamiliarity with the software of course).
