Hi,

I've implemented a check to verify the bottom-up conforming with this page
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms787796(VS.85).aspx

I've tested it with RGB32, but somehow the RGB24 doesn't work correctly, 
biHeight is positive so the image
should be bottom-up, but it's not! I was thinking of removing the RGB24 
support because of this, its causing
problems!

My suggestion is to use RGB32.

In the future I will implement a function to specify if the image should 
be flipped or not.

Hope this helps,
Cristian.
