  • flatten the image and delete the temporary gradient;

How to create palettes with more than 255 colors?

For the author of the phyton script, as you make to create palettes with more than 255 colors?

Any hints?

you can't

you can't

poor gif, and index mode in general support only 255 color no more.

may be a limited workaround but only for animation:
each layer can't have more then 255 colors but they may differ from layer to layer.

But that workaround doesn't help for not animated images.

Is not a SW limits but a limit of index mode, so no much hope
for future changes
