That is one of the worst things you could ever do. Bitmaps are not only HUGE in file size (they're the largest uncompressed images you can have), but the .bmp format is not supported in every browser or on every operating system. Originally a windows format, it will probably work in Internet Explorer on Windows, but aside from that you have no guarentees on what sort of system clients are operating on. JPEG images are the safest format in terms of being commonly recognised as a standard sort of format (and it would be nice if PNGs made it to the same standing) but you should NEVER use bitmap images on the web. |
