Can you please post images.BMP? You know, the image file you actually tried
to load? I think it's possible your pygame was installed without support
for file types other than uncompressed BMP. Try putting this in the python
interpreter and tell us what you get. (Copy and paste the output exactly as
you get it. Don't try to summarize):
open("images.BMP") ; import pygame ; pygame.image.get_extended() ;
pygame.image.load("images.BMP")
Just a helpful tip, but it's kind of frustrating for people to try to help
you when you "keep switching it around". It's great to try to work things
out, but you need to be consistent when you ask for help. Don't say "this
code snippet produces this error" if the error was actually produced by a
different code snippet. You'll get much better help back. :)
