Claim One:
1. A method of storing an image on a storage device in a tiled format so that the image has a plurality of tiles, the method comprising: formatting the image into a plurality of tiles; formatting the storage device to include a block size so that a tile size of each tile of the plurality of tiles is an integer multiple of the block size, and the tile size corresponds to a display output; reading pixel data of the image; generating, from the read pixel data, a first tile and a second tile of the plurality of tiles, wherein the first tile and the second tile each have overlapping portions that overlap by an adjustable amount, and the overlapping portions include substantially identical pixel data; storing the first tile and the second tile on the storage device, wherein a tile size of the first tile and a tile size of the second tile are integer multiples of the block size of the storage device; and repeating the reading, generating, and storing a plurality of times to store the plurality of tiles of the image, wherein the plurality of tiles of the image are stored on the storage device as a contiguous string of data.
