BMP format images aren't the best for the web anyways... You'd be a lot better off using GIFs for everything... You don't lose a lot of quality, you have 256 colors to work with, and they usually are under 1 or 2kb, as long as they aren't animated.
BMPs have a tendancy to not show up in some browsers... I think this is intentional, because even a 50px by 50px BMP can be well over 5kb, when if you save that same image as a GIF, it is only 1 or 2kb, and looks virtually identical. Browsers are usually coded to be as fast and efficient as possible, so some browsers may just decide to not show BMPs at all.
