Which Image Format Should I Choose?
Different image formats have different advantages and uses:
| Format | Best For | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| JPG/JPEG | Photographs, complex images with many colors | Small file size, widely supported | Lossy compression, no transparency |
| PNG | Graphics, logos, images with transparency | Lossless compression, transparency support | Larger file size than JPG for photos |
| GIF | Simple animations, limited color images | Animation support, widely compatible | Limited to 256 colors, larger file size for complex images |
| WebP | Web images, replacing both JPG and PNG | Smaller file size, supports transparency and animation | Not supported in older browsers |
| BMP | Uncompressed images, system graphics | No compression artifacts, simple format | Very large file size, limited web usage |
Common Conversion Scenarios
- PNG to JPG: Convert when you need smaller file sizes and don't need transparency.
- JPG to PNG: Convert when you need transparency (note: already lost transparency cannot be restored).
- Any format to WebP: Convert when you want the best of both worlds - small file size and quality.
- GIF to MP4/WebM: Consider for animating content (not supported by this tool).
