RE: [XaraXtreme-dev] Problem with contours loading Groucho2.xar

These clipart files were originally saved as .web which allows all
bitmaps to be saved as JPEGs.  8bpp ones are saved with their original
palette so they can be converted back to 8bpp on loading.  This has been
a feature of the Xar format for as long as I can remember.

8bpp files saved as JPEGs?  How is that possible? That's not a Camelot
feature I'm aware of.
