    There is no built in support for other types of images, but there are a fair few free graphics libraries out there that'll do the job fine. Writing your own code may be a bit tedious to start off with, but eventually you might want to create your own code just to understand the basics.

    There have already been threads about this topic, so do a search to get more info.
