JPEGs are typically the most utilized format for graphic images. Typically digital and color images need to use this compression format. JPEG compression contains full color or gray scale. JPEG compression format possesses a large range of colors. JPEGs capture the realism in images.  According to Sarah Horton, "The more a photo is squeezed with JPEG compression, the more quality the photo loses." Saving an original image is strongly cautioned. Once a photo has been tweaked, the original image is lost and cannot be retrieved.
