Macro's are a combination of keys that represent strings of commands, mostly used in Word Processors, spreadsheets etc... I suppose you could consider the Ctrl-Alt-Del as a semi macro. You could set up a macro to paste a certain block of text, or a picture I suppose, though I'm not really up on my macros too much.
To convert a bitmap to JPEG open the bitmap with photo editing software (MS Paint will work as well). Click File->Save As-> and change the document type to JPEG or any other format you wish. Voila!
