Format Details
PNG
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a widely-used lossless raster image format created as an open, patent-free alternative to GIF. It supports 24-bit color, full 8-bit alpha channel transparency, and highly efficient lossless compression. PNG is the preferred format for images with sharp edges, text overlays, logos, and any content where pixel-perfect lossless quality is essential, and it is universally supported in every browser and application.
WebP
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. It typically produces files 25-34% smaller than JPEG at equivalent quality, and up to 26% smaller than PNG for lossless images. WebP also supports animation and alpha transparency, making it a versatile single replacement for JPEG, PNG, and GIF in modern web applications.
