Is there any practical way for using tiles with QImage? I don't want to 
create it by myself (I've no time because of dead line of the project).

------------------
Sounds like a functional/implementation spec problem...

You can use QImage, but it has limitations...  As been said before, you
can create a tile based IO reader for QImage... Samples of custom IO
readers for QImage are out there... 

Good luck, next time I would plan ahead better so your lack of a spec
doesn't become a critical issue prevention successful completion
