Um, if I understand you correctly, Rikki, then you will want to pass the
GsIMAGE as a pointer, for example:

GsIMAGE	my_picy;

// Loads the .tim into VRAM
load_tim (&my_picy);               // This line in your main function

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
///////////////////////////////////////////
void load_logo (GsIMAGE *picy)
{
	RECT dest;

	GsGetTimInfo ((u_long *) (TIM_ADDR + 4), picy);
	dest.x = picy->px;	dest.y = picy->py;
	dest.w = picy->pw;	dest.h = picy->ph;
	LoadImage (&dest, picy->pixel);
//	Test for presence of CLUT, skip this part if not needed.
	dest.x = picy.cx;	dest.y = picy.cy;
	dest.w = picy.cw;	dest.h = picy.cy;
	LoadImage (&dest, picy.clut);
}

I'm also in a rush...to get to bed (03:02!!!) so I haven't looked too hard
into this little snippet of code. Anyway, this will load the .tim at
TIM_ADDR in RAM into VRAM (and the CLUT if neccesary, but I haven't got
that code to hand 'cause I haven't needed it yet). Hope this helps 'till
someone a little more awake than me replies...

Gareth!
