Solution 1

Console applications are designed to work in text mode, so you cannot display an image directly inside the console window. What you can do is to create a window (a GDI window) from your console application to show the image.

Solution 2

Using ASCII art [^]?

Seriously, the Console Application is not the best choice, why don't you develop a Windowed one?

[added]

As about displaying an image in a MFC application, there are a lot of tutorials about, Google [^] is your best friend.

The fifth entry shows, for instance, how to show bitmaps loaded from the resources (it is a bit dated, but should work).
