this is gonna be the dumbest question i've prob ever asked....can you convert a bmp to data..lol, so i could just copy paste it and use it like , well...data??? i think that would probably end up being really slow, but is it possible?

MS says explicitly in his web that installing GDI+ independently of any software distribution is a license violation and a lot more lawyer's blah blah..

Didn't know about that :oops:

Are you sure ?

Here you go: http://download.cdsoft.co.uk/code/fb-img2dat.zip

It outputs the data statements to console, so redirect the output to catch the code if you want (more info is at the top of the source file).

i got it to work, but i cant get the data to my bas file...tried everything!!! tried test.bmp > prog.bas and all i get is error's

heh...nevermind...i got an idea, i changed the source to wait a little while, so i could open through double clik icon, then select all, copy paste .... lol, simple

Oh, I see... I suppose you must have tried to do the > from when the program asked you for the parameters. Sorry I didn't explain that too well.

I meant if you run it from command line, you can redirect the output of the program. So from cmd, you would do: img2dat test.bmp > code.bas

Heh. Good idea to modify the code though.
