I wasn't feeling too well about posting this in the Mods section or whatnot, so here is my silly little rant: FOR GOD'S SAKE, PEOPLE, CONVERT YOUR DAMN BMPs into JPG or PNG! Even PAINTBRUSH can convert BMP into JPG nowadays, let alone wonderful free programs like IrfanView. A suggestion to Data: Block any attempts to upload attachments in BMP format. Thank you for your time and sorry for the blatant overuse of emphasizing elements such as emoticons and font size/color. |

Most people tend to upload just their TestDump****.bmp files when showing off a mod or a map. For modding, yeah, a small BMP file that contains a sprite should be fine, I take back what I said about blocking ALL bmp files. However, the fact still stands, people need to learn how to convert things to an appropriate format. |

I really don't care about some noob ordering me to convert my files. I'm busy enough as it is. |
