Sorry, yes, you're right... it doesn't support 16-bit BMPs, but does go for

24-bit BMP. Thanks for the catch!


(The way this stuck in my mind was the "Photoshop can't open BMPs exported

from Director" symptom, and it was caused by a 16-bit colordepth setting.)


For Jason: I'm not sure how you do on the one-or-all-files test, but if

you've got an URL for the raw image, then we here could help with the

one-or-all-machines test.
