[SDL] Color to B&W - Addendum

If I blit to the screen directly after having blitted the populated
background to it, the logo does appear in color.  So the problem only
occurs when I blit the entire background to the screen.  Since it was
originally all white it didn't show before.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Lilith
