Every Image Format Explained Part ~ 2

Replying to @beweir Part 2 ~ Every Image Format Explained Nine image formats broken down — JPEG, JFIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, GIF, WebP, and ICO — covering how each one compresses data, what it's actually built for, and why using the wrong format can bloat your files by thirty times or destroy your image quality one save at a time. From a format created in 1987 that survives purely because of memes, to one you've been using your entire life without realizing it even has a name. Some of these throw away data your eyes can't see. Others preserve every pixel perfectly but create files too large for any website. One does everything — lossy, lossless, transparency, and animation — in smaller files than any competitor. And the oldest one on this list is basically a relic from early Windows that has no reason to exist in 2026. Which format surprised you most? Drop it in the comments. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- #ImageFormats​ #JPEGvsPNG​ #TechExplained​
