Small graphic library

[Tihiy]

Do you know a small/fast/robust, open-source library which can load popular graphic formats? (jpg, gif, png, etc.)

I can't find one small & powerful enough. I'd also like fast image resampling algorithm

[phkninja]

what language are you using? if its C#,Clip,Common Lisp,Fly (Any Language),Lua,OCaml,Octave,Pascal,Perl,PHP,Python,REXX,Ruby,Tcl

then try GD

or then there is

ImageMagick

it does Ada,C,Ch,COM+,C++,Java,Lisp,Neko/haXe,.NET,Pascal,Perl,PHP,Python,Ruby,Tcl/TK

Well, i'll use C++.

Thank you for the links, however, i need something much lighter, i don't need saving/image effects/etc.

I need only to load .jpg, .gif, .png and have my HBITMAP. Nothing more. Looks like i'll have to use parts from some libraries...

i assume if you are only loading your making an image viewr. try CodeProject they have alot of info on MFC and .NET and loading images
