8 bit colour is typically an indexed format, where the unsigned value is a
look up index into a 256 entry colour table. In can, alternatively be used
simply as a grayscale value.

Hi, is there a way to show a form without a titlebar (and therefore no control box/minimize box/title etc) but still have it appear looking like 3D? The property FormBorderStyle to None - this gives no titlebar etc but the form borders don't look 3D. In case I haven't explained what I want well, I want a form that looks like a button with no text (ie a form with the lovely 3D borders but no titlebar etc).

Hi, I asked Bjarne Stroustrup about the idea of adding colour standard for C++, and he said that it is very difficult for compiler vendors to change their IDE. But do you think it is possible ? Note that the proposed colour standard is not just merely to ease the eye only as what presently is in C++ compilers, but to aid in syntax disambiguation and other advantages. Here are a few advantages that I can think of:
