Wow, I need to check out Craig's CMSAVE routine. It might have saved me
some work...

I just wrote a program a few weeks back that converts a 24 bit .PNG file to
an IDL .pro file to get around the inability to save data and routines
together in one save file. You call the function and it returns an array
containing the image. I have only used this on a relatively small image
(maybe 120x120) so I have no idea what the upper bound would be. I am sure
there are a load of issues when doing something like this but it worked
great for a little image in the "About" dialog and it didn't impact
application performance.

Craig's approach would be much cleaner but you are welcome to the code.
