Like this: LoadCT, 5 TVLCT, r, g, b, /Get image24 = [ [[ r[image] ]], [[ g[image] ]], [[ b[image] ]] ] You can find the details here: http//www.dfanning.com/color_tips/image24_from_image8.html Cheers, David -- David Fanning, Ph.D. Fanning Software Consulting, Inc.

If you have the 8-bit image and color table, just look up the intensities for each color component in the table. Without actually trying it, something like this: image8 = BYTARR(ni, nj) ;Your 8-bit image table = BYTARR(255, 3) ;Color table for 8-bit image image24 = BYTARR(ni, nj, 3) ;Empty 24-bit image image24[0,0,0] = table[image8, 0] ;Red image plane image24[0,0,1] = table[image8, 1] ;Green image plane image24[0,0,2] = table[image8, 2] ;Blue image plane Ken Bowman
