You use DeviL, or any other library as you would in C. However, DeviL was designed to be used with OpenGL.

Code:

#include "il/il.bi"

Edit I would recommend FreeImage, as it uses an image format you can convert to GfxLib's pretty easily:

Code:

#include "FreeImage.bi"
#include "crt.bi"

Dim dib As FIBITMAP Ptr
Dim dib32 As FIBITMAP Ptr
Dim sprite As Any Ptr
Dim bits As Any Ptr

ScreenRes 640, 480, 32
dib = FreeImage_Load(FIF_JPEG, "../myimage.jpg", JPEG_DEFAULT)
If dib = 0 Then
    Print "Couldn't Load Image"
    Sleep
    End
End If

FreeImage_FlipVertical dib
dib32 = FreeImage_ConvertTo32Bits(dib)
sprite = ImageCreate( FreeImage_GetWidth(dib32), FreeImage_GetHeight(dib32))
bits = FreeImage_GetBits(dib32)

memcpy sprite + 4, bits, FreeImage_GetWidth(dib32) * FreeImage_GetHeight(dib32) * 4

Put (0, 0), sprite


Sleep
