I don't know how far you are along with programming... but here are the
options...

Learn the bmp format (or snag some code that can load/read them)

you can get alot of file format specs at:

  - or -

You can get the PCX loader code - AND - a paint program like NEOPAINT, or Paint
Shop Pro, that can do the converting for you...
