I've been meaning to ask about that very thing: Is there any sort of file format with which BAMWorkshop is compatible? It would save me a ton of effort if I could get it to recognize *.BMP files, but no such luck. As it is, I'm reduced to taking an existing BAM and cycling the colors, which is just--how shall I put this--lame.

Also, is there a way to draw my own pencil-sketches for the items (left-hand side in the Item Description) instead of recycling the ones that come with the game? So far, the best approximations I've seen were the new Kelsey items, and all they do is repeat the BAM file.
