Hi there. I am working on a program to organize and check maps.
You are able to:
- view maps
- zoom in/out
- organize map folder structure
- examine maps by...
...inverting the colors of a map excluding full (#000000) black.
Dark (almost black) pixels now turn white and you can see (and fix) them.

I would have to assume that a png using BYTES is an actual 256 colour palletted PNG, those with an int array are actually true-colour PNG's with only a small number of colours in them.

omg. absolutely right. this was the only thing i didīt see (and this is sooo obvious). thanks. :)
if anyone wants to know:
8 bit grayscale image can display 256 grayscales, a pixel is represented by a byte variable.
8 bit color image can display 256 colors that are specified in a lookup table (LUT), a pixel
is represented by a byte variable.
16 bit grayscale image can display 65,536 grayscales, a pixel is represented by a short
variable.
RGB color image can display 256 values per channel, a pixel is represented by an int
variable.
32 bit image floating point grayscale image, a pixel is represented by a float variable.
Evilworm2, could you possibly implement .BIT support for this? :) I already have a nice .PNG map viewer. ;)

This is on my todo list.
Wonderful! That's great then. :) If you need help with that, Annelid (http://forum.team17.co.uk/member.php?u=39789) is a good source for it.
Also, after implementing .BIT, you could easily implement .WAgame map viewing!

WAgame map viewing!
very good idea.
and if u do can u also add options for export map :) rather than having to lets say go to the replay and do it witha right click.
So... can U pm me a link to beta test? Or is it not in that stage?

Give me another night. ;)
I currently implement a warning mechanism which warns you about non-standard map propertys.
Like map too large, too much colors, this stuff...
This will be the most useful application i have written so far. ;)
cool! Can't wait to try it!
