When in doubt, fltk.general is the place to post.
Myself, when I want images in my apps, I use .xpm files
and #include them into the code.
.xpm files are an interesting format in that they are both an
image file format and valid c/c++ code. They are also colormaps,
very similar to the gif format.
The only problem with xpms is they are not compressed in any way;
the data is more or less 'raw', one character per pixel.
If you have some code, definitely post it somewhere and point people
at it on fltk.general, and you'll surely get some good feedback.
