Commands that display images (e.g. TV) never
erase the display, so put as many images on the
display at once as you like. You can even overlap
them, etc.
If you are on a 24-bit display, just load a new
colortable before you display the second image.
If you are on an 8-bit display you will have to
divide your color table and scale your images
appropriately. Here is an article that describes
how:

Is it just me, or does the whole notion of
8-bit displays sort of date you. It's kind of
like mentioning the Mamas and the Papas, it
seems to me. :-(
Cheers,
David

the problem with 24 bit displays is if you want to create a 8bit gif image with
256 shades in each image.
