BMP files unavailable when trying to insert image

When trying to insert a bmp file using FCKEditor Insert\edit image feature I browse to the folder where the bmp file is located however bmp files are unavailble. I can see it in the file browser, however when the resource is set to image in the browser bmp files are unavailable.

I tried digging through various config file but could not see where I could add this extension.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

You should not use .bmp files in web content, it will only be visible in Internet Explorer if its visible at all. You should convert the file to a web friendly format like .jpg, .gif, or .png 

Hope it helps,

Joe

Thanks for taking the time to respond and for the insight.

I will go ahead and perform the conversions to a preffered format.
