A two samples with interlaced output but without TV filter. Also keep in mind that real CRT TV has color bleeding and other limitations that "improve quality" of the screen image and make it less flicker(afterimage through slow phosphors).

@tempest
Yes. You're absolutely right.
PheeL - OldsCool (Comment by: diver4d 2010-09-01)
Tempest, yes. But every 4color palette is specific mix of 2 pairs of 2 colors. Resulting gigascreen palette has a 102 colors.

And the main difficulty, that there is almost no editors for that mode. You can draw 2 screens separately in regular gfxmode editor (which allows to edit 2 screens with switching from one to another), or you can pixel in multiartist editor (for win32) which almost has no any common drawing tools.

I got the feeling that the screenshot doesn't display the whole picture =)
PheeL - OldsCool (Comment by: someone 2010-09-01)
So you can basicly draw a picture in this gfx mode by keeping a limit of maximum 4 colors in each 8x8 block area?

.gif is not a solution. It hasn't vsync. I'll try to make a sample video with emulator but can't guarantee a success.

so beautiful but i don't know if this flickering wouldn't ruin the whole experience. It would be like a demo that doesn't run at least at 25 frames. Nevertheless i guess, its hard to even manage to create two pics that look like this when merged together.

i think that for those gigascreen pic it could be nice to see an animated gif to get the same feeling as on a spectrum.
It seems those PNG pic have a better visual quality than on the original computer.
