    Question *question* Reading Image Files

    I want to know if some1 can help me. i'm working with borland C v3.1, i want to read image files to load them on graphic mode (using graphics.h and SVGA256.bgi). I know this SVGA256.BGI can be used with all the a palete, but i don't know how to set the palete or get the palete... i have seen some amazing programs made with borland using this .bgi, they load .JPG and .PCX and .BMP to the interface, and that's what I just need... if some1 can tell help (i don't want the source code, i want help finding the strcuture of a image file, and help with the palete... )

    PD: if some1 know a better grapchis interface i can use with borland and it works in 800x600 or more that can be useful too.

    Instead of the link in the FAQ, go to www.sunlightd.com/Windows

    Also, try www.wotsit.org for file format.
