Image on flash to VGA help!!

I used the DE1 demo program & control panel to put a converted image .dat file

onto the flash (using the image converter supplied) **note that it is not 640x480

It is actually a 16x16 tile I made in MSPaint. I want to display this on my

screen repeatedly. I expected the flash to contain the RGB data as such

[RB] [GR] [BG] (2 pixels/3 8-bits of flash)

However.. this does not seem the to be the case.

Has anyone else done this before? Is this the correct format or no..?

Any help would be appreciated!

    It's encoded in 24-bit colors... so each memory location in flash looks like
