| Technical Details | Because bmp files can be uncompressed, it is capable of supporting larger file sizes and thus higher resolution and higher quality images. This capability makes bmp files inappropriate for digital distribution via webpages or through bandwidth limited networks. Pixels in a bitmap support deferent color depths from 1 bit of either black or white, to grayscale which is 8 bits, to finally 24 bit RGB giving a possible 16777216 possible colors. Color depth can go as high as 32 bits however this is rarely encountered or needed in practice. |
