Problem:
I am using the _imagesize function to determine the size required to
store a graphics image. However, this function is not returning the
expected result.
Response:
The _imagesize function calls _getvideoconfig to determine the number
of bits required to store a pixel given the CURRENT video mode. If you
are calling _imagesize prior to calling _setvideomode, an unexpected
result is returned by _imagesize.
In summary, do the following in order:
1. _setvideomode
2. _imagesize
3. _getimage and putimage
