Is PNG better than BMP?

Yes, in almost every way. PNG supports compression (making files smaller) without losing quality, and it supports transparency. BMP is uncompressed and does not support transparency.

Will the image look different?

No. Both formats are lossless. The image will look exactly the same pixel-for-pixel, but the PNG file will be much smaller on your disk.

Modernize Your Images

BMP (Bitmap) is an old format that stores every pixel uncompressed. This means huge files that are hard to email or upload.

PNG is the modern standard. It uses smart compression to store the exact same image data in a fraction of the space. Converting BMP to PNG is a "no-brainer" upgrade for your files.
