# Aaaah!
I'll remember that in future.


So what does 'perceptual' mean?

Perceptual

Creates a custom palette by giving priority to colors for which the human eye has greater sensitivity.

Selective

Creates a color table similar to the Perceptual color table, but favoring broad areas of color and the preservation of Web colors. This option usually produces images with the greatest color integrity.

Adaptive

Creates a palette by sampling the colors from the spectrum appearing most commonly in the image. For example, an RGB image with only the colors green and blue produces a palette made primarily of greens and blues. Most images concentrate colors in particular areas of the spectrum. To control a palette more precisely, first select a part of the image containing the colors you want to emphasize. Photoshop weights the conversion toward these colors.

Hmm, I might have been completely wrong about custom, it says it's the same as adaptive. Meh. I always use perceptual. Unless I edit the colour table, which makes it into custom.

# I'll probably just stick with perceptual
until the next time something goes wrong and I'm forced to try stuff out.
