in thread Convert BMP to HTML

By the way, I don't convert every pixel into 20 bytes. Some pixels become a single "<TD>" tag, which is only 4 bytes. If the picture has a background that is solid white, that's the best. Like for example, here is a photo of me. I just cut out the background with a photo editor, so it's pure white. The script realizes that white is the most common color used in this pic, so it sets the background color to white. Then it just compresses a single white line like so: "<TD COLSPAN=70>" because it's a 70 x 94 pic. It becomes exactly 64,418 bytes, which is 9.78 bytes per pixel. Ouch! Yeah, that's not good, but it's not 20 bytes per pixel. Actually, it could be better with some more optimization.
