At the moment there are two image formats supported in Prof-UIS: bmp and png. There is a CExtBitmap class, written from scratch, which supports 32-bit bitmaps (loading, saving, and serialization) and is 100% supported even on Windows 9x/NT4. There is another class, CExtBitmapSkin, which is derived from CExtBitmap and supports 32-bit png images. CExtBitmapSkin is implemented using the well known and free LibPNG and ZLib libraries.
It would not be a problem to use other libraries for reading GIF images but we are using mostly 32-bit images with alpha channel and lossless formats. So other formats have been considered redundant so far.
