[STRANGE IDEA] increase HTC Diamond speed by reducing the color depth of the images

[_exe_]

I just got a pretty strange idea when i scrolling through the Window folder.
i discovered that all images has 32 bit color depth. 32 bit = 4294967296 colors.
And the Diamond can only handle 65000 colors.

So by reducing the color depth of all image (around 1000 ea) we can save a lots of space and the load time will speed up i think ??!!!
And it wont be possible to see any difference.

So what do you think ???

Sorry for my real bad english :D:D

This idea could be great, that's for sure. I've been working with programming in 28 years so I know what I'm talking about.

I'm not entirely sure how good it is though, let's hope for other members opinions.

it's windows mobile that can only handle 65k colours. I'm pretty confident the hardware might be able to handle more. it's weird that the OS-files has more colour depth than the OS actually can show though.

Yeah Microsoft must be the smartest people in the WORLD !!! NOT !!!

could very easy be that wm would
1. fail to use the Image if it's made only to work with 32bit images
2. convert the images before applying them which would result in
more cpu usage
