BlitzMax doesn't do a good job of differentiating between using images and pixmaps.

In this scenario, I need to read the color of pixel x,y on my 800x600x32 .png background image

So, looking through all the BMax commands, I assume I use LoadPixMap instead of LoadImage then use ReadPixel to find the colour ?

Is this correct ?
