wellll... maybe you should show some code how you tried to do this.

Here, this works. I'm punishing you by giving you the answer:

Code:

screen 20, 16
dim image as ubyte ptr
image = imagecreate(100, 100)
bload "image.bmp", image
put (0, 0), image, pset

that's not my issue..
Well anyway i sorted it out.
When saving the bmp in photoshop you have to save it as a 24 bit image, not a 16 bit.. That was the problem, not how you use the command bload

[Pritchard]

So it was how to load a 24-bit bmp then. :rotfl:

no. I'm i 16 bpp mode i fb.
For some reason bload won't load bmp's save in photoshop (i have only tried that one) as 16 bits images.
If you however save them as 24 bit's images and load them in fb (using 16 bpp) it will work..
Bug?

No. 16 bpp BMPs is just not a standard format.
