By the way, what video mode does Tutor-Tech run in?  Text, HGR, DHGR
or SHR?  That will make a difference in the colour choices you can
make.  I know that the only HGR colours that match the IIgs border
colours is black and white so if you want full screen video with
graphics overlaid on it in HGR mode, then you'll have to use black or
white as the transparent colour.

I can imagine.

I know what you mean.  I want to find more time to play with my card
too.  I came up with a possible way to view 320x200 images with 256
colours and 640x200 images with 16 pure colours (possibly 256 with
dithering) but I've never gotten around to trying it.  :)
