Replying to @._.asyraf Part 3 ~ Every Image Format Explained JPG, PNG, SVG, GIF, WebP, RAW, TIFF, ICO — you've used all of them, but do you actually know what makes each one different? Every major image format explained in plain English, no jargon required. 📖 What you'll learn: Why JPG took over the internet — and the one thing it can never do How PNG's transparency channel works and why it's the go-to for logos and thumbnails Why SVG isn't made of pixels at all (it's actually a text file describing shapes with math) How GIF became iconic despite being limited to just 256 colors — and why most "GIFs" today aren't even GIFs Why Google built WebP to replace JPG, PNG, and GIF all at once What RAW actually means and why it's more like a digital film negative than a finished photo When professionals reach for TIFF instead of everything else Why a format from 1985 is still sitting quietly in the corner of your browser tab right now ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 JPG 1:26 PNG 2:34 SVG 3:34 GIF 4:39 WebP 5:25 RAW 6:31 TIFF 7:11 ICO
