Re: Image APIs?
With JPEG/GIF decompression library for Palm OS you can also use native jpeg/gif format. It provides: 1.. Fast and quality decoding 2.. Fast JPEG scaling (1:8, 1:4, 1:2, 1:1) 3.. Optimized palette: 16bpp for 16bpp devices, Web palette for 256 color device, 4bpp for BW devices. 4.. GIF animation via one-function call 5.. Float scaling (bilinear/neighborhood) for bitmaps http://www.absoluteword.com/jpglib/ Sample code available... -- "Oscar De León" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > George, > look at this Technical Note.

RE: Image APIs?
George, look at this Technical Note. Could help as an starting point. http://www.nsbasic.com/palm/info/technotes/TN04b.htm The sample code is for NSBASIC, but DmGetResource() is an API, so you can translate the code easily to C. Regards Oscar -Mensaje original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] nombre de George VS Enviado el: Miércoles, 14 de Julio de 2004 3:50 Para: Palm Developer Forum Asunto: Image APIs? Hi group, I am considering building a photo album application. Can anyone give me advice on what Image APIs may be used. Are there any specific APIs for different devices (Palm, Sony, ..., OS5) or a standard can be used. What APIs are used for building the image databases (storing images) and what APIs are used for rendering images on devices. What formats are available. Is there any common image format (say .bmp) that can be used for both Palm and PocketPC devices. Thanks!

Image APIs?
Hi group, I am considering building a photo album application. Can anyone give me advice on what Image APIs may be used. Are there any specific APIs for different devices (Palm, Sony, ..., OS5) or a standard can be used. What APIs are used for building the image databases (storing images) and what APIs are used for rendering images on devices. What formats are available. Is there any common image format (say .bmp) that can be used for both Palm and PocketPC devices. Thanks!
