JPG image format Pros
- Compresses the files quite efficiently.
- Universally supported for display.
Cons
- Compression is “lossy” and it slightly alters the image data. In case of global changes (color, contrast…) repeated file editing will slowly degrade the image quality.
- At good quality levels, compression is invisible in photography, but can be seen (so called “artifacts”) in computer-generated graphics and text.
- Doesn’t support transparency.
Recommended uses
- Display of photography
- Storage of photography
