Hi
Don't use 'save as'. Use 'save for web' option and select the GIF and color depth you want (upto 256).

Regards
Or use the "export" option, rather than "save" option.

As I recall, "export" is the preferred method (works for all image types).

You can also use ImageMagick to do your conversions, to convert between any 2x formats.
