This method does not deliver what I require. But thank you for helping me learn how to manage palette's.
What I need through GIMP is a way to remove individual colours from the image dynamically in real-time. For example, I would click one colour to turn it "off" and see the change to the image. If the image isn't severely affected by turning "off" that one colour, then that colour should be removed. I deal with images that are only 2-64 colours each, and shaving off colours is a huge importance to get the filesize down to the absolute smallest. Currently I use Web Image Guru to do this. Great program. But it costs money. The programmers I work with are all interested in installed GIMP on their machines. So going through GIMP, I haven't been able to easily reduce colours of an image on-the-fly.
