Solution 1

VC6 still had access to gDI+, I thought, via the platform SDK. GDI+ can load png, as well as jpg, gif, tiff.

Solution 2

You could use CImage[^].

From the description of the class in the documentation page:

none

CImage provides enhanced bitmap support, including the ability to load and save images in JPEG, GIF, BMP, and Portable Network Graphics (PNG) formats.

Solution 3

Here[^] you will find a solution using GDI+ technology.

1) Create CStatic control on your dialog window, where image will be placed.

2) Use CImageCtrl class as instructed in steps from 1) to 4.1.3) in the first part of the section "Using the code".

I really hope the OP hasn't waited over 5 years for this response.
