Hires colors subset of Lores so can replicate a blocky color image. Could in theory animate this at 60Hz. Also could flip between 4 pages, but need the 8k of HGR page2. For cycle-counting timing, jmp one into a bit $C055 instruction which is EOR $C0,X (4 cycles) Note, discover that the LORES and HIRES pages aren't exact matches for each other, even when using same color. Half-pixel off? E-mail: Half screen text, half 40x96 lores. Text is also interlaced top/bottom to create new chars (including some lowercase) on Apple II+ and before w/o lower case. Trouble as the built-in font is offset a frame on II vs IIe? Also annoyance, my GR compressor uses Grey2 (color $a) as encoding, which means can't use a GR image to hold plain black spaces (char $a0)
