   Loading BMP pixel data
  I''m trying to create a bitmap (BMP) image loader which''ll simply read in the pixel colours of a bitmap. Can anyone point me towards any tutorials about how this can be done, or failing that, a well written document about the BMP format. 
http://www.wotsit.org/search.asp?s=graphicsshould do the trick ;  BMP is a surprisingly fugly format. If you have the choice, I''d suggest loading from TGAs.   "Sneftel is correct, if rather vulgar." --Flarelocke
