UserModifiable Color Palette
This option allows applications to modify the palette contents dynamically. As indicated in figure 30, this mode reserves the first 10 and last 10 entries in the palette for the Windows operating system, but applications can manipulate the middle 236 entries. This is the standard palette mode as configured by Windows.

Static Gray Palette including standard system colors
This option sets the palette to be a static set of 256 gray values. Therefore, applications are denied the ability to dynamically change or allocate palette entries. This prevents palette conflicts between applications, which can cause image color values to appear distorted in the background application.
As shown in figure 31, the 20 standard system colors are converted from RGB to gray values. The rest of the 236 entries from index 10 to 245 contain the missing gray values so that the palette has the full 256 gray values within it.
