What do you want to use it for? (It can do a lot of things, although some of them are hard...)

Here's a simple example:

extensions [ bitmap ]

to setup
  ;; import a large photo and store it in the image variable
  let image bitmap:import "elephant.jpg"    

  ;; show the image (or whatever fits of it) in the view, at pixel coordinates 0,0
  ;; (Note, pixel coordinates are not the same as patch/turtle coordinates...)
  bitmap:copy-to-drawing image 0 0

  ;; make a smaller 200x200 pixel version of the elephant
  let small-image bitmap:scaled image 200 200  

  ;; display that smaller image in the view at pixel coordinates (50, 100)
  ;; (Note, pixel coordinates are not the same as patch/turtle coordinates...)
  bitmap:copy-to-drawing small-image 50 100
end
