Is it possible to know how many colors are in a palette and
which ones?

get the histogram, and count the number of non-zero bins
(len(filter(None, im.histogram())) usually does the trick).
and which ones?


quickest solution: resize the image to (256, 1), convert to RGB,
and use getpixel((i, 0)) to get the color for color index i.

lut = im.resize((256, 1)).convert("RGB")
print lut.getpixel((0, 0)) # get color #0

or use getdata() to get an array of color indices:

lut = im.resize((256, 1)).convert("RGB").getdata()
print lut[i]

</F>
