AGA can't produce 16 bit 1120x834 screenmode.

Seriously now, anything fancy requires a gfxcard.

I was asking about the theme and the multicolor workbench and if it can be done in AGA in 256 colors.

It can not.

Even if it could, it would be unbearably slow. Just try setting your Workbench to 256 colours and play with it.

as far as I can tell it's the decoding of the JPEG image that is slow... and thats probably why the dock is so slow...

The image is decoded only once, so this isn't it.
