did you change to 4bpp display mode? WinScreenMode() API call?
BITMAP is 1bpp - and, if you dont change the display, of course
it will display that image. only problem is that pilrc tries to
convert your image to 1bpp as thats what you have requested.
check the archives on how to change into other display depths.
i do it all the time :) so, its not impossible.. dig and you
shall find answers. :P
