Yup. Don't use the Image Editor.
Now for the slightly more informative answer:
Check the docs to see if Delphi can handle .rc files. BCB4Pro does, so
I assume Delphi does as well. If so, include your bitmap (sounds,
icons, strings, whatever) that way. Then you don't have to worry about
anything getting messed with, including the palettes in your bitmap, as
the file will get compiled into the res with no modifications to
content.
Failing that, go hunt the net for a free .rc compiler or resource
editor.
