About the first post in the topic;

Cant we show the image without saving it on the disk.

See Include bitmaps in your scripts!

is it possible do this with a picture in .jpg? And its bigger? 1152x864

These techniques are more designed for small pictures: encoding binary data to Ascii form (to be included in script) makes the data bigger (from 33 to 100% more) and there is a limitation on continuation section size.
So, it is possible, but probably inappropriate.
If you compile your script, perhaps you should check FileInstall.

Maybe THIS technique.

The concept can be extended easily to support arbitrary file/file size.
Titan's UUencode/decode can be good start. The same thing is used in e-mail clients around. Some compression can be achieved using PhiLho's & Laszlos compreesion algorythms. The best way though is to use cabinet creator to pack multiple files into single one, convert that single one into hex data and return it back later.

can you give me an example? or the link to titan?

Example is not trivial.

Keywords: BInaryRead/Write, UUEncode, loop, GUID, ScriptMerge

_________________

No, if I recall correctly, UUEncode is an old, quite obsolete Unix encoding. E-mail uses Base64.

Keywords .= " Base64"

i am a very noob at this... please please pleace... make a example.. To get big pictures at the gui! I dont understand.. pleace help me!

Why don't U try original approach. I bet it will work.
We ment LARGE files, and jpg at screen size isnt' LARGE.

Dear Anonymous Guest (are you zugurt the original poster? This is confusing), perhaps you should explain what are you trying to do.
Why loading an image from a file isn't wanted?

There's a request at AfH, which I think could be solved using the techniques descriped at this thread.

Situation:
a) a consecutive number of images AKA a movie.
b) valid for most images is that only parts of its content will vary. The majority of pixels will remain unchanged.

What about to convert the 'master' image to keep it, and all following ones will just save the variable subset of that 'master'??

To achive this, put all images in the GIF, optmise it, and do the code to display image from the gif by its index.
