I have been going over my old archives of useful B3D routines and found this one tucked away.

I have Fast Extension v17 so the "FastExt.bb" is okay, but there is also the reference to include a dependency of "FreeImage.bb" - I have no idea what this file is, or where it comes from!

Could anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks muchly :)

Here you go...
It allows you to save/load images other than bmp.
e.g.
FiSaveImage(rockalphaimg,rockalphafile$)
Your file extender (.png) tells it which format to save in.

Excellent!

Thanks for getting back so soon, JOhn!

Oops.. nope that's not it!

Sorry, It's "FreeImage.bb" I need, not "FastImage", and there weren't any bb files in that zip.

I have double checked through all the Fast_* libs that I have and no Freeimage.bb there, so it must be something you created or is maybe from Code Arcs?
I have looked for it amongst the various 'produt's that I've got for Blitz+ and B3d but no luck :(

There's a Code Archives entry for freeimage.bb http://blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=1732

Is that what you are looking for? It's for version 3.10.0 from five years ago.

You can get old versions of the dll from http://freeimage.sourcearchive.com/

Yikes sorry - that's part of the FastLibs library!

Here's the real thing:
