I'm not sure how to do it.

It would help if you told us what you are planning to use in terms of an assembler or compiler.

If it's just for displaying the image:

include \masm32\MasmBasic\Res\MbGui.asm
GuiControl MyImage, "canvas"
Event CanvasPaint
  GuiImage clipboard
GuiEnd

Saving the image is much more complicated (project attached):

include \masm32\MasmBasic\Res\MbGui.asm ; needs MasmBasic (http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=94.0)
GuiControl MyImage, "canvas"
GuiImageCallback MySave ; tell GuiImage to call MySave

Event CanvasPaint
GuiImage clipboard
EndOfEvents

MySave: SaveImageToFile "test.jpg" ; can be gif, bmp, png, jpg, tiff ...
ret
GuiEnd

Hi AsmAlmeria12,

Here is an example for you. The code does not check the content of the clipboard so please don't forget to hit PRINT SCREEN or ALT+PRINT SCREEN before testing the application.
