Ernie,

1x1 is a 1x1pixel bitmap created by resizing a Pronto CCF bitmap down to 1x1pixels. The goal here is to capture a .BMP with the correct 256 color palette used by the Pronto. This .BMP can then be used by non-MSPaint programs to generate images with the same color palette entries.

What you appear to be experiencing is...

Palette color matching to nearest color.

See the first paragraph on this link for an explanation of how palettes factor into a Pronto .BMP image.

And the "What's a palette?" paragraph in this one.

Following these, you should now realize that all images in the Pronto must use the same 256 color palette.

If an image contains a Palette color entry that is not one of these 256 colors, the offending color is matched as close as possible to a valid Pronto Palette color.

I hope this helps.
