I once wrote a program for a game project at our school to design 8*8 sqpx sprites with a palette of 4 different colours (this system is oriented at Nintendo's GameBoy internal workings). The whole thing is implemented using a CTile class which works on an Image object internally. I attached a screenshot of it. Frankly, it is not really good for fonts, as you can see :-) Is that of the kind you want to write? Regards, Tobi
