What resolution are you using? What''s the bit depth of the bitmap?
Sorry for jumping on your like that but It''s hard to know what the problem is without more info

OoMMMoO >> I built my image class on his loading function and I found some problems. The functions he uses don''t take concideration to the fact that bmp files are DWORD aligned. So i for example 24-bit the width of the image must be a multiple of 8 (or maybe 4, don''t remember).

I haven''t found much else but you might wanna try using our code with some bmp files that are for example 32x32 pixles and see how it work.

You might also want to try using GDI for loading your bitmaps, much easier if you know how (I don''t

Or better yet, use DDLoadBitmap(), to load bmp''s, which is found in the files ddutil.cpp and ddutil.h.
