Forum:BMP file format

Is it possible to upload and display BMP format images with wikia? The Magic Lantern firmware for the Canon 5D can only load 8-bit palletized BMP files, so it would be helpful to be able to store the images in the native format rather than requiring conversion by the user before transfering to the camera. Thumbnails would obviously be converted to JPEG by Image Magick, but the original would still be available for download. -- Autopilot 19:25, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * From Special:Upload, we can tell that Wikia doesn't allow uploads in bitmap format. Personally, I think that BMP format images really are not the best, so I think you should be converting the images before uploading. Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 08:12, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
