If you want to do a lot of work with images and don't want to use external modules, then can I suggest you find a targa to pbm (portable bit map) converter so that you can work with the images in pbm format (or ppm if you want color as well). That is about the simplest image format available, and is very easy to manipulate with straight perl.
I am pretty sure that the netpbm package comes with a pbmtotga and tgatopbm program to do the conversion for you.
Here is a description of the ppm image format: http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/doc/ppm.html

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
