That there is no color difference in those areas is actually kind of
lucky, because to make it smaller before posting it, I converted it to a
PNG-8 128-color-constrained image with no dithering. : ) I did notice a
difference in color in the red A flag thing, but the rest looked close
enough not to b concerned about.

I just now checked the "red A flag thing" as best I could with
DigitalColor meter and the readings were identical. Even with the area
to examine being as small as possible I had to include some of the
black and a small bit of the surrounding area, but the dominant color
was the red.

Oh! Identical on each map in the image - YES! Sorry. Brain fart. I was
comparing the original screen shot with the converted image I uploaded
to Image Shack. Duh.
