Hi,

3. How to convert a PNG to GD2 correctly?? Noone seems to explain
this...When using pngtogd2 its required to specify the chunk size.. what
value should i use? I just want to use a normal image as background...

-> I just use (for example) png2gd2 router.png router.gd2 0 2 (i.e 0 chunk
size uncompressed)
