Bibhu,

The image needs to be the same size as the screen - 800x600 or 
640x480 depending on the configured resolution.

If you need to load a smaller image you will need to either:

A. Write code to read the file and write it into the screen buffer, or
B. Pad the image with blank space to make it the screen size.
 
I'd recommend doing the latter.

Regards,

PJE
