So slavik262,
In order to create IImage * from a png or bmp file, I will have to use FreeImage library. Is that right way to go?
Best regards.

No... this is Irrlicht code. Just use IVideoDriver::createImage. Be sure to drop the image when you're done with it since the function name starts with "create..."

Thanks everybody,
For your kind help. I used slavik262's code almost verbatim, and it worked like
a charm.
Best regards
