Exactly so. My comment was neither a bug report nor 'arm wavy', just noting a characteristic/behaviour of netSurf. I very much appreciate there are limited resources available for NetSurf development, but I am really not in any position to judge whether rendering a BMP file, or not, is of any real significance, thus my comment. I am just glad that development seems to be going so well as it is, IMHO. > Could it be a .bmp format not currently understood by NetSurf?
