ImageViewed in AppleWin EmulatorCaptured from real HardwareTODO Most people assume this should be easy to do, but you have color-clash sort of like on ZX Spectrum (but on Apple II it's horizontal only, no vertical clash). Skilled artists can do amazing things in this mode, but it has a distinctive look as clashing colors will often have black or white padding to keep them apart to avoid clashes.Also be aware switching palettes shifts the pixels by a half-pixel amount so if you look at the columns on the edge you can see it looks like the line bends, that's why.
