Hi Anton,
I intentionally pointed out the "performance issue" and the missing
native(and thus really fast) feature:-) Don't take it bad but your
to-8-bit-grayscale is really slow ;-) It takes 0:00:01.515 on AthlonXP 1700+
to convert image of 400x300 size which is not usable on slower machines or
even for realtime usage....I know you can reply that "it depends on what you
want to do" and I respect this...but we are in the year 2003, most of
current desktop monitor resolutions are at least 1200x1024 and more!
Please, don't take my words ofensive at all. It is great you showed that it
can be done in Rebol too. I just can't wait for the Carl's promised plug-in
architecture :-)
keep up reboling,
Cyphre
