Hi, you "design" the bitmap using an image editing program. Like photoshop, photostudio etc or one of the shareware programs.

You can also use PBRUSH.exe (WinPaint) which I think is still included free as part of Windows but hidden in the C:\Windows directory.

These programs all have the ability to save the bitmap as "black and white" format, sometimes called "2 colour",

Then use the GLCD editor tool that comes with MikroC, to turn the bitmap into text array for use in your code.
Using; EasyPic4, EasyPIC6, BigPic4, MikroC. MPLab, MPASM.
