What for is defining a pallete (int my case I declared PALLETE pal) in function load_bitmap(bmp, pal) needed? And after that calling the set_pallete(pal) function? If I write those statements, the background color will be magenta and all the indexes of colors are mixed (eg. before color no. 1 was blue, no. 4 was red...) Anyone can explain these things to me? (I haven't found such explanations in any tutorial...) Thanks for help, Matej
