  How can I inset a .bmp file into a post? This doesn’t seem to be a supported format. I’ve pasted a screen print into Picture Manager and cropped it ready to be inserted into a new post, but i haven’t been able to find a way to do it.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Bitmaps ( .bmp) are not supported. You’ll need to convert to one of the accepted file types.

  You can upload the following image types to a post or page on your WordPress.com blog:

  .jpg/.jpeg
  .gif
  .png

  Thanks – I’ll try saving as a .png file.
