I believe it could be useful to use some routines like giftopnm, djpeg,
ppmtoxpm to convert your images into xpm, I found them in my RedHat Linux
distribution, I think it is not difficult to find them in internet.
I use pixmap (xpm) 512x512 without any problems, I think use X11-pixmap
would be better but I haven't studying it yet...
