Does anyone have information on the format of .BMP files, such as are used for wallpaper in windows 3.0? I'm trying to easily import frame-grabbed photos for wallpaper, and the most trouble-free approach would seem to be directly writing the .BMP file from my own application. (I've tried using the Paintbrush FRIEZE program to create a PCX file, then importing that into Windows Paint, but it scrambles the colors.) Any help would be appreciated. Please e-mail directly, so we don't clog the news files. If anyone else needs this information, I'll be glad to forward whatever I get. Just let me know you need it. Jordan C.
