That is exactly the point I'm trying to make. Everybody knows the order as being R-G-B, but the function BGRA() seems to imply B-G-R order. I think renaming those two functions to RGBA() would be more logical - even if you don't know the parameter names (ie: just by looking at a code sample). > I believe this is little > annoyance - once you take a look at parameter names, you see what is > their meaning. Yes, but just looking at a code sample, like the ones in BGRABitmap Tutorial wiki page, is rather confusing. The function name implies a non-standard order.
