How I created this image: http://tinysubversions.com/2013/01/super-mario-bros-the-way-i-remember-it/
  • Install GNU IMP
  • Install GNU IMP PAL Filters http://registry.gimp.org/node/19058
  • Open image in GNU IMP
  • Make sure image is in RGB (Image > Mode > RGB is checked)
  • Color->Components->Decompose->YCbCr R470 (this decomposes the layers into Y, Cb, Cr, and opens a new three-layer image. Y = brightness, Cb = blueness, Cr = magentaness, roughly)
  • increase the brightness on the Cr layer a bit
  • decrease the brightness on the Cb layer a bit (played with both of these til it looked right)
  • Color->Components-> Recompose
  • Color > Hue-Saturation: select magenta and red, increase the saturation a little on both of these to make it more neon
  • Filters > Artistic > PAL: press okay to select defaults
