Is that because black was the background color and you chose not to use black in your 6 pallet?Not in cases like Samus. Samus's black is actually the background, NOT part of the sprite. You CANNOT fill outside of the sprite's shape, nor use your background color as part of your palette; these both count as modifying the shape.
Like if I was doing that same sprite (I'm not going to, this is just an example) and I used black in addition to the red, orange, and green; then would I be able to edit away those black pixels inside the sprite?
If you did something like SMB3 Mario for example, you would be able to completely modify that sprite's inside, since it doesn't use any transparency / background tricks.
Also, cool entry Moneyman.
