Abstract
A method of previewing an image displayed in a first video graphics environment as it will appear in a second differently palettized video graphics environment. The method includes determining the appearance of the image as it will appear in the second video graphics environment, and concurrent with displaying the image in the first video graphics environment, displaying the appearance of the image as it will appear in the second video graphics environment. The invention also features a method of tailoring how an image displayed in a first video graphics environment appears in a second video graphics environment. Tailoring can include providing a preview of an image as it will appear in the second video graphics environment, receiving user selection input that selects a video display characteristic of the preview image, determining a replacement video display characteristic provided by the second video graphics environment, and replacing the selected video display characteristic of the preview image with the determined replacement display characteristic.
