I've never seen BMP loading or saving code that didn't have to resort to
the Windows API.  Even then, the code was horrible.

TGA is a good format for when you just need to put pixels to disk.  A
single fixed-sized header out the front and then just dump the pixels.

Think of it as the non-ass version of BMP that also supports 32-bit colour.
