Thanks for the suggestions. Performance isn't a concern yet, so JTAG UART will also work for me. But so far all I've been able to use it for is to receive character data from NIOS II on a terminal. I want to be able to write a C/C++ program that will transfer the bit-array of the image to the FPGA. How can I accomplish this with JTAG UART?

Also, are these external modules that you mention (UM232H and USB to UART) additional circuitry or IP Cores that can be added in Qsys?
