There's a PSP game that I am messing with and I want to edit it's GIMs. I've found a work-around by throwing the GIM into RCO Editor and then convert them to a bitmap with that, but it's very tedious and there's a lot of GIMs that I want to convert. Is there a stand alone application that can convert a whole bunch of GIMs easily?

in sony's official PSP/PS3 theme creator should be program called GIMConv.
its a command line program so just throw together a batch script.

If bstronga's help didnt help , use a online converter , they covert images. Not sure about gim's though :S

I thought GimConv only converts images into GIMs. What's the command for turning GIMs into BMPs?
