Hide In Picture
(ver 2.1)
Abandoned Freeware


Hide In Picture is a 32-bit Windows encryption 
program that lets you hide files (of any type, 
including binaries or other pictures) within a 
bitmap (bmp, gif) image.  

Hidden files are encrypted, dispersed through 
the image, and password protected (forgetting 
the cAsE sEnSiTiVe password will prevent hidden 
file retreival). Be careful NOT to click on 
"save" if you don't want the original image
file overwritten (use "save_as" instead).

Color photographs often work best as the storage 
container, and it is preferable that the stored 
file be no larger than 40% of the container size
(the program will prevent you from hiding a file
if the file is too big for the container).

While there are utilities to encrypt files on a 
disk drive, these lack portability.  A bitmap 
container could be emailed, or even publicly 
displayed on a webpage, without being suspected.

NOTE: You do NOT have to install this program.
Simply place the executable file in a directory 
of your choice, and run it from there.
