When I get a moment I can forward you a few bitmaps I managed to display on the Supersoft board as would be cool to see them on your system. 

Also have code that draws hi res mathematical graphical images but not sure how you would use them right now.

A lot of it was found on the net and converted to the Supersoft format. Some of it from the DWW hi res board which I can forward on also.

The resolution of my board is 320x200 and I think you will have to reverse the bits also as FF is no bits set and 00 is all set. Simple subtract from 255 should do that.
