Is it possible to use .png or .jpg on cutin ? 

Because bmp images huge in size and hard to compressing.

Thanks in Advance.

@@depomguss yes you can use but the problem is you cannot make the background transparent, only BMP with pink background can make the background transparent

No you cannot, but whether the bitmap is compressed in GRF or saved as PNG does not make that much difference anyway (among others because they use the same kind of compression). Also JPG is lossy, so transparency magenta would bleed out.
Example:

- Bitmap: 622 KB

- Bitmap in GRF: 125 KB

- PNG: 107 KB

- PNG in GRF: 107 KB
