I've noticed people store images two ways.

  .byte %10000000
  .byte %11000000
  .byte %11100000
  .byte %11110000
  .byte %11111000
  .byte %11111100
  .byte %11111110
  .byte %11111111

  .byte $40 ; | X      | $F7DD
  .byte $20 ; |  X     | $F7DE
  .byte $10 ; |   X    | $F7DF
  .byte $08 ; |    X   | $F7E0
  .byte $04 ; |     X  | $F7E1
  .byte $02 ; |      X | $F7E2
  .byte $01 ; |       X| $F7E3


The top is definately easier to read.   Will DASM allow me to save images in
the two ways, or is one from a different compiler or something??

Can anyone explain the differences and the advantages???

Thanks,
Joel D. Park
