[comp.sys.mac.programmer] How to paste >1bit image to PICT fork

ejw1@quads.uchicago.edu (eric john weidl) (04/22/91)

	Is there any way for me to move a >1-bit image from one program to 
the PICT resource fork of another?

	I have scanned a photograph using Lightning Scan and have saved it 
as a 4-bit LightningScan image.  Now I would like to take that image and use 
it in a splash screen in a program I have written.  I figured the best way to 
do that would be to store the image as a PICT in the resource fork of my 
application, but I canUt get it there.  When I copy the image from 
LightningScan to the clipboard, it becomes a 1-bit image ;-(.  

	What am I doing wrong, or how else can I do this?  I am using ResEdit 
1.2 and System 6.0.5/6.1.5.
