1. Load your bitmap file into a new bitmap with the load bitmap command and supply a flag. Then use the copy bitmap command to copy that bitmap to the screen. It will stretch it to whatever coordinates you specify.

2. There are many threads about saving games. For more detailed information, search for them. The basics include learning how to write and read from text files. Look at the examples that come with DB for writing and reading from text files.
