converting jpg to bmp code?

[nickrule99]

hey guys-

i wrote a program that gives the user a random backround everytime it opens, but the image has to be a bmp, otherwise windows wont change it.

With the images I have now, its auond 70mb zipped. If I were to use jpegs it would only be 6mb.

Anyone know how to change a file from a jpg into a bmp?

Thanks guys.

You've got me this far, just push me over the hump
