Display Image in GUI Window?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Display Image in GUI Window?

Hey smart ppl, :-)

I seem to have so many questions these times..

I'm trying to display a normal image in a window. Be it jpg bmp gif or whatever. I should use gif, but can convert if nessesary. But I really don't know how to display a simple picture. It would really help, if there were some kind of thorough manual about BlitzMax, filled to the brim with easy-to-understand examples. But I guess you get what you pay for. After all, it IS good value for the money.

Anyway, about my problem.. I have come so far myself, that I can guess it has to be done with a canvas?? Or what? Can someone provide a painfully simple example of how to do this?
