*.PNG ('''Portable Network Graphic''') is a raster graphics image format used on websites and Web applications. It is a type of open and bitmapped graphical file format that is built on the concept of lossless data compression. It was created and conceived by the World Wide Web Consortium as a replacement to graphics interchange format (GIF). | *.PNG ('''Portable Network Graphic''') is a raster graphics image format used on websites and Web applications.

*.TIFF ('''Tagged Image File Format''') is a standard file format found in most paint, imaging, and desktop publishing programs and is a format native to the Microsoft Windows GUI. TIFF's extensible nature, allowing storage of multiple bitmap images of any pixel depth, makes it ideal for most image storage needs. | *.TIFF ('''Tagged Image File Format''') is a standard file format found in most paint, imaging, and desktop publishing programs and is a format native to the Microsoft Windows GUI.

*.RAW ('''Raw Image Format''') is an image file generated by digital cameras such as some Panasonic, Leica, and Casio cameras; contains uncompressed, raw image data; can be adjusted for exposure and white balance in software after saving the image to the computer; used for storing unaltered image data as captured by a digital camera's CCD. RAW files may also be created by image generation software, although this is not as common. | *.RAW ('''Raw Image Format''') is an image file generated by digital cameras such as some Panasonic, Leica, and Casio cameras; contains uncompressed, raw image data; can be adjusted for exposure and white balance in software after saving the image to the computer; used for storing unaltered image data as captured by a digital camera's CCD.

*.BMP ('''Bitmap Image File''') is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels; contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color. BMP files may contain different levels of color depths per pixel, depending on the number of bits per pixel specified in the file header. They may also be stored using a grayscale color scheme. | *.BMP ('''Bitmap Image File''') is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels; contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
