问题
Im currently learning graphical programming in tasm using dosbox. Ive been using a bunch of loops to draw square blocks of pixels and its really hard. I want to know if theres a way to read an image and display it. I know how to read a txt file maybe this is a start. Pls help

You need to write/use image loader or use your own image file format. BMP may look simple but has too much in it like compression pixel formats etc but you still can focus on a specific type of BMP and ignore all the others...
Back in the days of MS-DOS I was using 256 color PCX images with palette as I used 256 color video modes. Here NASM LINEZ game example:
- Color Lines - simple game in C++/the checking algorithm
see the pcx: subroutine. It decodes loaded PCX file from memory ds:0 to raw VGA image at es:di. Beware it does support just 64 KByte size limit !!!
Now to visualize the image you would have to copy es:di content into VideoRAM (assuming A000:0000) for example with rep movsd or you can set es:di to it in the first place (but that could flicker).
This PCX loader however does not use palette from the image so you need to encode it ... (the routines to change VGA palette are included in the source you just need to extract the RGB values from PCX I think it was at the end of file) Look here:
- my C++ PCX loader with palette
if converts PCX to 32bit raw image.
For more info about MS-DOS game programing see PCGPE 1.0
Here another game example (TASM) which uses own image file-format:
- What is the best way to move an object on the screen?
It has text menues, binary file access, 320x200 sprite graphics, 3 human players
[Edit1] New code
I removed the old code example and instead I created compilable and working 8bit PCX with color palette viewer in TASM. It uses VESA 800x600x256 colors mode (103h).
The image must fit into screen and its file size must be less than 64 KByte !!!
I did not add any checks or error messages ... It simply loads file image.pcx and displays it on VESA then wait on key hit end exit. Here the TASM source:

So take any image up to 800x600 convert it to 256 color PCX with palette and rename it to image.pcx. Then place it to your *.com file and run. I compiled it with Volcov commander extension script vc.ext like this:
asm:@c:\language\compil\tasm\tasm !.! /ic:\language\source\tasm\inc
@c:\language\compil\tasm\tlink !.obj /t /x
@del !.obj
so each time I hit the enter on any asm file it will compile. Just change the paths and if you are not targeting *.com files then change the /t switch accordingly. Here preview from my DOSBox:
