   I'm running windows 3.0 and have noticed that there are some bitmaps
   available to put on the desktop background.  All files end in a '.bmp' 
   extention.  Coming from the land of Unix, I have access to all sorts
   of bit maps that are more entertaining than the ones supplied by
   Microsoft.  Does anyone know what format these .bmp files are in
   and if there are utilities to convert from one of the many more 
   common bitmap formats (gif, etc) to a .bmp?

   Thanks

There are a load of utilities to convert from one form to another.
One place to start is cica.cica.indiana.edu.  This is a windows 3.0
archive site.  The form of the bitmaps is described in the SDK
documentation.  The books is called something like Programming
Reference Manual.
