Ariel Sprite Request

I am trying to create a pattern of Ariel. I created it with MacStitch but the colors are messed up and it doesn't have the full 23 colors. I generated a pattern with another program, and the color list came out great, but it doesn't export with symbols on color chart like I prefer.
Can someone try generating a pattern with KG-Chart or PCStitch for me? I prefer a pdf or jpg chart, symbol-on-color, and all 23 colors. I have attached the list of colors that I generated that were accurate, and the sprite image.
Thanks in advance.

I ran it though KGChart, but it needs a little fixing up (some random colours turning up where they shouldnt, others not turning up everywhere they should), so I will tidy it up for you after work today.

Here are the patterns in jpeg and pdf.
Just take a look over them, the second darkest red only patterned in half the time so I fixed it up by hand from your image. I think I got all the pixels. Also interesting thing - once I chased down some odd points (much lighter pixel in the middle of a dark area not visible in your image sort of thing) it came down to 15 colours. Initially the pattern program was assigning several colours to what appears as a single colour. This is probably because your sprite is in jpeg format, which can introduce slight variations that the programs pick up on. If you want me to remake it and leave it as KG thinks it should be I can upload that tomorrow.

No worries
ps Don't trust the colour selection or listed dimensions on the KG Chart pattern, the default settings are wierd.

The hair colors seem a bit darker than the sprite, but they should be pretty easy to swap out from some of the colors in my list. Do you have KG-chart file for it? I am going to try to get access to a PC tonight to do the color swaps in the program itself.
Thanks,
