To upload screenshots to ticalc.org, they must be in .gif format. So I saved the screenshot from SC2, but it saved as a .bmp image. How can I change it to a .gif image? And do you think they will allow .bmp images generated by SC2?
First of all, what do you mean by "screenshot from SC2"? Do you mean that you took a screen shot of source coder and saved it? If so, then that has nothing to do with Source Coder. Second, Source Coder does not encode anything as .bmp. Third, ticalc will not accept .bmp's. Period. Fourth, just save your images as .gif using ANY image editing program.
By screenshot from SC2, I meant that I uploaded a TI picture file into SC2, and saved the image that SC2 produced. I thought by saving the picture from SC2, that it would be saved as a .gif file, but for some reason it got saved as a .bmp file. But I just solved the problem. Thanks for the help.

Because the way that source coder parses a .8xi, it is automatically a bmp. Simply copy to your favorite imaging program, and save it as a gif in there. Smile
This is incorrect. SourceCoder generates .gif images; your browser incorrectly detected the type, use FF instead of IE. Just right-click the image and choose save as, then filename.gif.
Ok, for those of us that can only use IE while not at home with the FF machine... Razz Rolling Eyes

One of these days I'll remember to switch to FF Laughing
I can't believe you can stand IE. :S
yeah, I almost stay away from it so much I don't even test site in it (stupid me though)
@Kerm: You might be able to add a type="gif" tag to the <img> tag. That might help if you explicitly state the filetype.
Yeah, I probably should do something like that. I was unaware of that parameter...
