One postscript: Jim and Robert's solutions are currently the best
way to do it.  If you only modify the RGB intensity values in your
GsSPRITE structure and say you smoothly decrement/increment them,
you'll notice some weird flickering as the image's RGB values get
mapped from whatever internal true color scheme is used into 15-bit color.
