furthermore, bmp are not ideal for web (they're very big in size compared to gifs or jpgs)
Gif - Max of 256 Colors, sharpest quality usually, can animate, supports a transparent pallete.
Jpg - Max of 32bit color, Looser quality (depending on level of compression) , much much smaller in file size.
most graphic utilities can save to either format. just keep the limitation in mind. Karl

...and to complete Mike's and kb244's I'd like to mention that the only three graphic formats supported by HTML standard are JPEG, GIF and PNG.
