Wow, I never realized that DHGR colors could show an image so well.
Most impressive.

I agree the wikipedia palette produces results indistinguishable (to my
eye) from the original, unless I zoom in.

The other palettes look pretty good too.  

I had the best results with normal Floyd-Steinberg dithering, then
reduced FS, then positioning, and None being awful, which is what I
would have expected.
