/* Esplora TFT Bitmap Logos This example for the Arduino TFT screen is for use with an Arduino Esplora. This example reads an image file from a micro-SD card and draws it on the screen, at random locations. There is a .bmp file included with this sketch. - open the sketch folder (Ctrl-K or Cmd-K) - copy the "arduino.bmp" file to a micro-SD - put the SD into the SD slot of the Arduino LCD module. This example code is in the public domain.
