The Lospec Palette List is a database of palettes for pixel art.
We include both palettes that originate from old hardware that could only display a few colors, as well as palettes created by pixel artists specifically for making art.

Since Commodore is making new Commodore 64 consoles expected Fall 2025 I am exploring if the graphics would be capable of doing the kinds of games I want and testing the vibes to see if making a "new" Commodore 64 game would match my aesthetics. This is pretty cool. With actual experienced artists (not me haha), you could do some amazing and fresh stuff with the palette. - by

CGA was a graphics card released in 1981 for the IBM PC. The standard mode uses one of two 4-color palettes (each with a low-intensity and high-intensity mode), but a hack allows use of all 16. #cga

This palette was originally created by Mathew Eis and posted to his site. It's a reconstruction of windows 95's 8-bit 256 color palette.
Had trouble getting it working so uploading it here to convert, as well as share with other people looking for it (took me a bit of searching to find)
