        Well, you need to save it as a rectuangular.
        But if you want to display it purely get GFXNEW3.Zip from the ftp.
        THen you just go to the video mode of your choice and do this:

----------------------------- Beginning of code -------------
here you change to the wanted video mode

        include gfx.e
        include image.e

        sequence temp_s
        temp_s = read_bitmap ("mybmp.bmp")

        sequence my_sprite
        my_sprite = MakeCS (      temp_s[2], {{{1}, CS_ANIM_TYPE_FREEZE}}),
{0}, {Monitor[VS_TYPE], Monitor[VS_SIZE][X], Monitor[VS_SIZE][Y]}   )

------------- end of code -----------------

        Now if you want to set the position do:
        Monitor = SetView (Monitor, {{100,100},{1000,1000}})
        Now the position is set to 100 by 100. Forget the last two, just
keep em high.
        If you want to draw your sprite do this:
        DrawCS(Monitor, my_sprite)
        There are also other ways to set the position of your sprite, but
this one will do fine. (Althrough it is not its original purpose)
