I was woundering if there was any way I could load an image file (doesnt mather what format) and display it inside a terminal emulator or in terminal mode.
Something like the ubuntu splash screen for example.
I doesnt mather what language I can do it in, just as long as it can run inside Linux.
Any ideas anyone?

I'm not sure you can do that, maybe convert it with Gimp to Ascii picture and just echo it ?

In the terminal, go to Edit > Active Profile, choose tab Effects. Choose your picture.
That will take care of the terminal, but I think it won't work in terminal mode.

Edit: You meant, just showing a picture once? Then I don't know.

that's one way, and i guess it's the only one, unless you don't want to switch to framebuffer and use such kind of tools. i recall i used seejpeg as of slackware 8.0 :) but this is unlikely what you want.
