I also use Paint Shop Pro, I don't recall Photoshop being able to count colors, I may be wrong.
Usually I save my files in .png format, it can handle unlimited colors, like RTB told, plus transparent. And it also got compression, like .jpg, but it don't loses it's quality.
Some images when you see the PSicture got palettes, and some of those images (to much my dismay) got sprites using different palettes at the same time! So if one image seems messy, it's because it may be using the wrong palette.
But some images the program can't recognize the palette, so all we can do it's to play the game to check the palette and change it manually (Paint Shop Pro got some tools to do that easier than Photoshop), but sometimes they are just so messed up that there's nothing we can do.
