BTW, endianness as a concept cannot apply to 8 or 24 bpp formats.
To 8bpp no, but it can easily apply to 24bpp.
Any byte swapping rips apart the bytes of a 24bpp pixel, so those formats only make sense as straight array formats.
In my book little endian just means "lsb is stored in the lowest memory address". The fact that your CPU/GPU can't do 3 byte swaps is not relevant for that definition IMO.
