How can i compress an images size like a .gif or .bmp without losing the picture or its quality? Anyone?

I don't think that's possible.
What you can try, is: reducing a picture with paintpicture just throws away a lot of pixels. For example, if the size becomes the half, then one on two pixels in a row will be deleted. Instead, you can make a source code which looks at both pixels and makes one new pixel what's in between. But when you then enlarge the picture, it's still not the good quality...

I think you should just look for a way to save gif or jpg, which is much smaller than bmp.
