I really wouldn't do that. The 'solution' of dividing by 256 is far more
accurate.

With 256:

0 to 255 -> 0,
256 to 511 -> 1,
...
65280 to 65535 ->255.

This gives an even map of 256 values down to each resultant value.

With 257:

0 to 256 -> 0,
257 to 513 -> 2,
...
65278 to 65534 -> 254
65535 ->255.

NOT an even spread.
