image question with registry

How do you save an image to the registry and open the image up.

The only way I can think of doing this would be to store the file name into the registry, then open then image from the disk. I don't belive that it is possible to hold a complete image in the registry (although I may be wrong).

Its a small image that the user saves to the registry when they click save and they open the image up when the click open

So can anyone help me :)

can u store the picture as a binary file.. ?

I do not think it is possible to save anything other than text or numbers (in dec or hex) to the registry. Why do you want to save an image to the registry? You can just do what Gaming_World posted and save the image to the disk, then put the file path in the registry.
