Is there any way to save images as .jpg files instead of .bmp? |

AFAIK saving JPG (without to own a license) became legal not so long ago. That's why it isn't so common. Once upon every App that was capable of saving JPG had to purchase a license from the patent owner, and in the header of the JPG file they usually had to name the license owner. Saving JPG using blitz code may be a bit complicated (I guess there's no sourcecode yet), but there are some commandline tools that allow to convert a bmp to a jpg. you may try to find "bmp2jpg" at google. |

If you don't need to save it within code, just load the .bmp into the windows picture viewer and saveas .jpg format from there. That's what I do. Stevie |
