You don't have to make .bin files with PilRC and then add those to your
CW project.  Instead, use the PilRC plugin.

Before you try to paste in a bitmap, open the bitmap edit window, then
see Options | Set Image Size... on the menu.

You'll find it in the Thrill Seekers folder.  However, you should
probably get the latest version from
http://www.calliopeinc.com/pilrcplugin.html

To use the plugin, create an .rcp file with the resource descriptions
and include that in your project.  The plugin will create an .r file
that contains Rez source for your .rcp resources.

For an example, see http://www.calliopeinc.com/stationery.html
