I know its not 'great', but its usable.
check it out, if you want the source, let me know.

basically, it uses an 8bit palette principle to create the effect, in a byte-buffer, then renders the buffer to the screen.

code uses allegro, and requires alleg40.dll to run the example.

I owe alot of thanks to Torbjörn Gyllebring for helping me get my original code working. To use the code freely, you must give credit to both myself, and to him.

{edit}

okay, new version now.
