Bitmap	A Bitmap is a collection of dots (or bits) that when viewed together form a picture. JPEG, GIF, PCX and TIFF are all commonly known forms of Bitmaps. The only downside to a Bitmap is that on closer inspection they are very blocky, so for more detailed work it may be better to use CoralDraw or other Vector graphics packages.
