    Because I'm not a good programmer there is a few things that are not clear to me.

    Where I can download the Arduino utft ImageConverter 565.exe.I found only a online converter on Rinky-Dink Electronics web page.

    What is the purpose of this file "flash.py.TXT" and where I must copied this file.

    When I get a image file from ImageConverter565 how I can send this file to external Flash memory w25q32.

    where can I get ImageConverter565
    to find the image converter just google arduino utft library

    I got mine from here
    http://www.rinkydinkelectronics.com/library.php?id=51
    download the utft.zip ,its in the utft/tools folder

    What is the purpose of this file "flash.py.TXT" and where I must copied this file.
    flash.py.TXT needs to be renamed to flash.py
    its a python 2.7 script . you will need to install python 2.7 on to your pc

    to be able to run it

    Code:
    #flash.py extract
    import os
    import time
    from Tkinter import *
    import serial
    import glob
    ser=serial.Serial("com27",38400)
    ser.flush()
    ser.timeout=.005
    there are some python apps that mat need to be installed too see above (os,time,Tkinter,serial,glob) most come preinstalled
    the code also wants a serial port (or it will crash and burn) mine uses com27 you can edit file to suit your setup , whatever port you supply needs to exist and be available for python to use


    this code can either make a pbp.bas include image file or transfer the image directly to external Flash memory via the serial port when used with my flash add in
