I'm encountering an error trying to import an avatar as a bmp image through the API

Code:
/avatars/25258.gif {
    "success": true
}/avatars/25259.gif {
    "success": true
}/avatars/21684.png {
    "success": true
}/avatars/21685.png {
    "success": true
}/avatars/21686.jpg {
    "success": true
}/avatars/25257.bmp {
    "errors": [
        {
            "code": "uploaded_file_must_be_valid_image",
            "message": "The uploaded file must be a valid image.",
            "params": []
        }
    ]
}/avatars/21689.png {
    "success": true
}/avatars/5115.png {
    "success": true
}/avatars/5116.bmp {
    "errors": [
        {
            "code": "uploaded_file_must_be_valid_image",
            "message": "The uploaded file must be a valid image.",
            "params": []
        }
    ]
}
}/avatars/21671.png {
    "success": true
}/avatars/21672.jpg {
    "success": true
}/avatars/21673.jpeg {
    "success": true
}

I've attached an example of a bmp.

UPDATE: I can't upload an example of the bmp file because bmp has not been allowed on this website, though I have allowed it on mine prior to making this post. It still did not change the results.

This is generally as designed. We only allow web-safe image types (GIF, JPEG, PNG) for image-specific uploads like avatars.

Attachment file types are not involved in this.
