 Images commonly known as Joint Photographic Experts Group.
-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."<ref>Lynch, Patrick J., Horton, Sarah.

Once a photo has been tweaked, the original image is lost and cannot be retrieved.

 Commonly known as a Bitmap Image File.
-BMP is a file format used for digital images. The BMP file produces images from hundreds of small pixels of color.

Meanwhile, a compressed BMP file, which is larger than a JPEG, can be stored and transferred easier over the web.
