Say, I want to convert a .bmp file to a .png or .gif file without color loss. I would save it as a .jpg but I dont like the messy pixels. =\

Is there a way to do this without fancy programs? And by the way, I already tried saving it as "filename.png" (with the quotes)

what program are u using?

MS Paint.

I think if you use Paint, it'll forever be of crappy quality. If you're really unable to download/purchase/come upon a better program, you could always post the image and ask someone to convert it for you. We're all willing to help.

*sighs* The problem is, its ALOT of images saved as Bitmaps. Oh well, I'll just download PSP or something...

Go to downlaod.com and search for InfranView. It converts things from .bmp to .gif without colour loss.

when i used paint a long time ago, i think i remember a way i did it.


save as a bitmat, then open the bitmat file and resave it. i dont know, that might have been it.

if you do download psp, theres a function in it where it will convert all the files for you so you dont have to do it manually. its' called a batch process i think, and its in the file menu.

irfran view is great! all i've used it for is making icons tho. it is free tho, which is good

Thanks! I downloaded Ifran View!

(My teacher has it on his computer... O.o)

Its free! ^^
