Let's see each of your issues one by one.
The import only pulls in the bitmap, it's exactly for pulling in 1 bit hires graphics. The colors are irrelevant, you can color them anything you like in a few keystrokes. (If you do want to keep the colors, you can use the above mentioned converter.) Here's how you set the colors:
1) Press CTRL+A (or choose Edit | Select All) to select the entire picture
2) Use ALT+Cursor to select the background color you like in the bottom palette (or simply click the color with your mouse)
3) Press ALT+0 to set that color as the background. Since your selection is the entire picture, it will be applied to everything.
4) Do the same as 2) for the foreground color, and press ALT+1.
This answers your second question as well, just clicking a color on the palette doesn't change anything, you have to set that selected color either as background (ALT+0) or foreground (ALT+1). (If you're using multicolor mode, ALT+2 and ALT+3 work as well, since you have a total of 4 colors).
There are all mentioned in the help, just choose Help | Keyboard commands.
