Creating a System.Drawing. Imaging.ColorPa lette

Nathan Sokalski

How do I create a new System.Drawing. Imaging.ColorPa lette? ColorPalette does
not have a constructor, and the Entries property is ReadOnly. How are we
supposed to specify a palette other than the default? If there were a method
to import an Array or Collection of System.Drawing. Color or something, it
would be no problem, but the way it is set up right now I pretty much feel
like it is useless. Any ideas? Thanks.

The correct method is to create an 8 bit per pixel image and seal the
palette from it.

See my GIF articles on my site for some assistance.

Problem creating a Bitmap from an IO.FileStream

by: Nathan Sokalski | last post by:

I am having a problem saving an image with the same name it originally had. I have two similar versions of my code, one in which I close the FileStream used to open the original image before saving, the other in which I close the FileStream afterwards, although both return the same error. Here are the two versions of the code and the errors they each return (NOTE: I rebooted immediately before running each of these versions so that I knew they...

I am trying to set up an Image authorization where you type in the value that is in a picture to log on to our site. I found a program that is supposed to do it, but it doesn't seem to work. It should put a blue and yellow box on the page with "This is a test" as part of the picture. But what I get is a broken Gif. The other problem is that I can't view the source???? The view source is disabled for this page. What causes this?

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
