an image file needs to be converted to a C file using RGB565 little endian.
To do this you have two options:

So anyone who face an issue like me will could use such tutorial.

If you can transfer your image file to Hexadecimal array, then write the Hexadecimal array to StickC. It will display the image.

What type of files we can convert, what type of conversion I need use, as I see that we have many RGB types, and so on...
I need step by step information :( Thank you in advance.

You need to transfer your picture to array[] first, so that M5StickC can display through callback this array[].

e.g. gImage_logo[25600] in the logo.c file

const unsigned char gImage_logo[25600] = { /* 0X00,0X10,0X50,0X00,0XA0,0X00,0X01,0X1B, */
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,
0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,0XFF,

The library of M5StickC has not owned any function whick can callback a image file directly likes imge_jpg(), imge_png(), imge_bmp().

Images must be .jpg (.JPEG not supported),
File size must be smaller than 24KBits,
Progressive and Lossless JPEG format is not supported,
Gray scale image are not supported.

This section of the documents is largely unwritten and untested at present as I'm working on the document but have problems with the Stick C.
