a better option would have been total image converter which saves all images in .gif (animated) as a .jpeg multimage folder
jpegs wouldn't be optimal for this situation, though.

Why aren't you telling him to use PNGs?

Re: How would you convert a gif to bmp
Find the file in Windows Explorer. Let's say the file name is "scratch.gif" Change the "gif" to "bmp". This may result in a little bit of color loss so have a backup image.
Hope this helped.

But in newer computers you can't just change a filetype like that...

On XP, you can't do that. Or at least on my copy...

"How would you convert a gif to bmp?"
Simple. I wouldn't.
But if you really want to use GIMP.

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say. I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
