I'm trying to create a graphical application and using pygame as my library. However, in order to load non-bmp files I need to build python with full image support.
The image module is a required dependency of Pygame, but it only optionally supports any extended file formats. By default it can only load uncompressed BMP images. When built with full image support, the pygame.image.load - load new image from a file function can support the following formats.
How do I do this?
The image module is PIL - you can get it here - http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil
