An index image is referred to as an 8 bit image or a fixed table of colors of 256 separate colors.
A "normal" tga in 24 bit image with three channels that are Red Green Blue each being 8 bits with
a color range of 16 million possible separate colors. The next is the 32 bit tga, it is essentially
a 24bit with a fourth 8 bit channel known as the alpha channel. The alpha channel color range is
256 gray scale or just black and with. The alpha channel enables transparency. A Gray-scale
image in a 8 bit image who's color table ranges from black to white. A note: 8 bit images do
offer transparency as well but all that at a later time. Editting images is fun and easy if you
have a real drive (and time) to learn.
