Yep that is me.
Tell me what you really want/need to do and what OS and what type
of tools you are comfortable with.
There are a few options, for converting bitmap images to usable data structures
if you are using the glcd library.
There are commandline tools like bmp2glcd (I have a modified version for the glcd lib)
and then the glcd library includes a java based GUI conversion tool as well.
The code fragment I posted earlier is part of the XBM bitmap support code that
that will be in the glcd v3.1 release.
XBM format isn't as fast at rendering on the display as native glcd format
but it can be quite convenient.
