Image File Formats - JPEG, GIF, PNG

[@JochCool]

Summary: * *JPEG*: tiny file size, lossy compression. Bad at sharp edges/curves. * *GIF*: lossless compression, animatable. Only 256 colours. * *PNG*: lossless compression, no compression artifacts, transparency. Larger file size. * *TIFF*: supports any colour palette and compression as it's a container format, popular among photographers. Very large file size. * *SVG*: scalable without any quality loss. File size depends on how complex the image is, rather than the amount of pixels. * *RAW*: raw, minimally processed data from camera. * *HEIF*: supports animation and is higher quality than JPEG and GIF. * *BMP*: stores each pixel individually. Supports transparency. Very large file size. Note: file sizes aren't always smaller or larger; some formats are optimised for certain types of images. For example, PNG is smallest if you use few different colours. Edit: updated with information from the replies.

[@danijel-ch2gk]

they forgot HEIF :-(

[@joechief2456]

To add, TIFFs are much bigger, SVG size is dependent on complexity of shape rather than amount of "stuff" in the image - i.e. an SVG of a simple rectangle with a simple image gradient works extremely well in an SVG, a photo would be terrible, and RAW files are minimally rather than unprocessed.

[@sonyavi03]

So which one is good??

[@harveyfilm2865]

png for sure

[@dyclaim]

png compression is lossless or lossy. depends on settings you choose. most png files are encoded in lossy format

[@DigitalMetal]

"A RAW files isn't an actual picture, but it just contains the information to create one." I'm pretty sure that's true of all digital image formats.

[@ChronosCooper]

So you too did watch the squish the cat over the shoulder video. HAHA

[@jennyjohn704]

@Li Feng Yes. The difference is they store all the information, whereas lossy formats only store a percentage of the information.

[@AmethystistheAudysmal]

You are all JPEG images

[@MrHatoi]

Correction: "A RAW file doesn't just contain the information to create a picture, it contains the information needed to create the information needed to create one"

Me too

[@nevinkuser9892]

Yep. They're versatile. I first loved them when I was designing a header and realized that I could put my png logo over the background color of the header. Everything that was not the png logo itself was transparent. Blew me away and looked so cool!

[@intisarmehbubkhanramim7650]

True!

[@sogerc1]

IKR, just don't forget to turn on compression. I was using wkhtmltoimage and the damn thing doesn't turn on compression by default, and I didn't notice it until my php script ran out of memory one day.

Please END JPG on logos, graphics or cliparts. It's just awful to see people using JPG-compressed logos all over the place.

[@GraveUypo]

I have never worked with jpgs. Even at the highest qualities its still too lossy. I HATE jpeg artifacts

[@pandoratv3927]

I always use png lol

[@tesityr6722]

If I may pop in on this, JPEGs can actually be very high quality (95+%) and even truly Lossless (which many people don't know) - however, the file sizes would then be in the same realm as low-compression PNGs or BMPs. If I may explain further, part of the reason why you are seeing sooo many JPEGs online, is because many companies/servers/etc post-compress submitted images as JPGs to save server space. Sadly though, this results in many nice art/logos/etc appearing online as artifact-full-JPEGs, as you say, 'all over the place'.

[@TheReaverOfDarkness]

If you don't know anything about images, then .png should be your default. You can never go wrong with .png unless you're an expert and know what you need. .jpg is generally the best format for photographs, but you can often save the same photos as .png in only slightly more space and it's technically lossless which .jpg is not. .bmp is a generally awful format to use. The only excusable time to use .bmp is when you're making very tiny images such as icons or oldschool-type graphics, and even then there are alternative image formats such as .ico or .pck.

[@kiwi6277]

i don't understand why jpg exists, it looks so fucking worse than png for like -70% file size

[@luizftavares]

I only use JPEG to deep fry images with ungodly amounts of compression

My favorite image format is actually PNG for a few reasons: 1. It supports transparency, and that’s a great feature to have for me especially, since I’m a graphics designer for myself. 2. The quality of images PNG provides are actually very good! Unlike JPEGs which have those “JPEG Artifacts”, as I like to call them, when viewed up close, and it looks absolutely terrible! 3. PNGs don’t take up that much space. I mean, JPEGs do take up a lot less space than PNGs, but mostly due to the JPEG Compression Artifacts, but PNGs still don’t take up that much more space than JPEGs anyways, since you’ll be getting a much better quality image with just a general file size increase. And you’ll probably notice that I compared PNGs to JPEGs, and in case you haven’t figured it out yet, I despise JPEGs for the reasons I stated above. Additionally, I’ll use TIFF images exclusively for Desktop Pictures & Wallpapers.

[@Nightcaat]

Don't forget about APNG, which is so much better than GIF.

[@gala8903]

Cba cba

[@marcozg77]

JPEG artifacts only appear on high compression. I upload all my images (photos taken with my DSLR) to flickr as jpg (highest quality setting). I did a comparison between 16-bit TIFF (no compression at all, 150 MB file size) and a highest-quality jpg (15 MB file size). It's impossible to tell the difference. I really tried, going into 100% view. Looks exactly the same. At a fraction of the size.EDIT: I was wrong. I had another look. If you zoom deep into the pictures, the jpeg that the nikon raw converter exports has some strange "pixel regions" and has less resolution that the tif. However, I highly doubt one zooms into the image like that. The problem with tif is, you cannot upload it to flickr, and that makes sense - one single file is 100 MB...

[@Ephicx]

@@marcozg77 That's because jpeg is designed for pictures. You would not look professional if you tried to use jpegs for graphic design on websites, it looks awful no matter how low the compression is, and also doesn't support transparency. the better format nowadays is webp as it's both as compressable as jpeg (lossy) and as high quality as png (lossless) while also being the same size as a jpeg. You can also have animated pictures in full quality with it, although webm is better for this when it comes to filesize. Only downside at the moment is iOS and safari doesn't support webp, but it will be more common in the future when more applications support it. Once safari and ios browsers support webp we can expect all major companies to adopt it, but for now it's either serving jpeg for safari/ios users and webp for the rest, or just waiting to adopt it until everyone can use webp.

Video format, codec, container video please! For example, mkv (container) x264 (video codec), h.264 (video format)... and of course the audio and subtitles side

[@uzefulvideos3440]

x264 is an h.264 encoder.

[@ragtop63]

x264 isn't a codec. It's an open source compression library, just like x265. h.264 IS a codec, along with h.265, VC-1, MPEG2, MPEG4, DNxHR, ProRes, etc.

[@vandalest]

GIF's use indexed colours or palette, meaning a GIF can only have up to 256 colours but you can chose what colours to have in the palette from 24-bit RGB color space. Animated GIF's can have different pallete for each frame. Also GIFs can have one color defined as a transparency. but making it a pixely edged transparency. PNG's can have a fourth layer of color witch is aplha (or RGBA), giving more smoother transparency edges. PNG's can be smaller than JPEG's if the image has lot of same color surfaces. Company logos, witch are in two colors can be much smaller filesize and better in quality when saved in PNG and larger and with artifacts if in JPEG's. Canon new cameras have a RAW format with Double Pixel data (DP) witch gives new option to make small focus adjustments after the photo is taken.

[@ChrisThe1]

PNG - Best general purpose format. Lossless compression, so good image quality for photos, text, graphics etc. JPEG - Bullshit. Should only be used when nothing matters. Doesn't work at all for text or graphics due to lossy compression. SVG - Good for graphics. Scaleable, so no limited resolutions. Doesn't work for photos. GIF - Outdated. Completely replaced by PNG. Shouldn't be used anymore due to limited resolution and colors. BMP - Old, but very simple. PNG is superior for general use, but BMP is marvelous for integration into custom programs. TIFF - Can contain lots of different formats. Don't use it unless you know what you are doing. If you do know it is great for keeping image quality, specifically higher than 8bit per color channel (R,G,B). Supports different color spaces, thus very useful for professional printing (CMYK). RAW - Best for editing. Not useful for any other purpose.

[@jessecontrerasgaray2752]

thanks dude your a life saver

[@thebasketballhistorian3291]

Most of my photos are saved in JPEG and so are most photos on the web. They save a lot more space on my hard disk, and I can barely tell the image quality difference from PNG. I use PNG for project files that must retain 100% quality though many saves.

JPEG: cuts out useless info to save space Also JPEG: saves your location for others to stalk you

@baconmedia93 JPEG photos taken in cameras normally store metadata too, like the location where the photo was taken, the hour and date, the camera used, etc. If someone has a bit of a brain they can know your location by seeing this metadata from a phtoo you send

To display anything in 10bit you HAVE to use profesional graphic cards (such as RadeonPro or Nvidia Quadro) and a monitor that actually can display so many colors + use new version of displayport.

[@josgeerink9434]

[@angiethelastancient]

TIFF isn't necessarily an image format on itself; it's a container format, more meant to be some sort of album or bookcase to store images in. Yes, multiple. TIFF supports multiple images stored in a single file. Each image gets its own little data header that tells the program reading it what image format is used, what size it is and where to find the next header in the file. This also means that for single images TIFF will always be a larger file than its original format, but it offers great flexibility as each image can be in a different format and size.

[@pvaultstar0809]

I'm a self-taught/still learning web dev and graphic designer and clear and concise information about all of the things you could cover is really lacking on the internet.

[@n00blamer]

I want to start this by saying that this is a really good summary of the differences in graphics formats, really well done, Techquickie! Uh..oh.. here it comes.. akshyally... GIF is not limited to 256 colors. In GIF internal terminology a "full image" is called "logical screen" and it consists of number of "images", which each have maximum of 256 colors. One can compose a logical screen from 16x16 pixel images so that any number for available 24 bit RGB888 colors can be used in the final image.. errr.. logical screen.. Most GIF loaders that resolve into 24/32 bit final output are able to read such GIF files. It's just ultra-rare to find such file since most encoders don't really care about creating such files. :) I know, dumb trivia.. please don't flame, I really like this video!

[@rasmachris94]

What Im hearing is JPEG for absolute compression, GIF for graphical design. PNG for everything, but higher file sizes than JPEG. TIFF for graphical design in multiple colour spaces. SVG for flexibility in scaling an image - most likely use case being graphical design. Raw for photography where quality and flexibility of editing are most important.

Definitely do more videos like this, this is crazy helpful.

Linus looks weird today

[@stephensnell5707]

That is because it is not Linus talking in this Video

PNG > All.

[@rjfaber1991]

PSD > PNG > All else. Wouldn't like to lose my layers, masks and non-RGBA channels every time I save an image.

[@applepearhero]

i-R7 Rock jpeg > all

[@owengee7415]

depends what you're doing... as explained in the video, did you watch it?

[@PanoWorks]

Generalize that as "source format > PNG > All". Even then I would say (for still imageS) source format > FLIF > A: PNG or B: JPG depending on content. Hopefully in the future FLIF will find greater adoption.

[@GeekyGami]

PNG is great when it's not printed Tiff has more advantages, but less compatibility when it comes to Web

[@buizelmeme6288]

0:20 the guy using the computer at the background; isn't he is working on +musescore ?

[@qwertyuiopzxcfgh]

I was taught that PNG stood for "PNG's Not Gif", similar to GNU.

[@sgtdrillhole]

When people say gif with a "J" I get so angry, I have to go blow off some steam at the gym. Maybe I'll drink some gin too

[@stephensnell1379]

Made it clearer for me I until now after watching this video I was unsure about the different file formats and what they had in common

[@anintelcorei7quad-coreproc873]

needs more JPEG

[@raptorbass4054]

an Intel Core i7 Quad-core Processor , i need you

[@applepearhero]

an Intel Core i7 Quad-core Processor I have you

[@MRrandomrandomgamer]

I hear Ryzen's been kicking your ass. Quad-core's just don't have the muscle to fight back

[@goldkubera4740]

i came here expecting to see 3 different people with same clothes that look like linus when they did comparisions to JPEG , GIF ,PNG . sadly i was dissapointed

[@salmaeliela3329]

Clear, precise and straight to the point. I love it!

[@deathlessgamer]

Video file formats plz.

[@sinjai1337]

I know there's nothing he can do about it, but his voice drives me insane.

[@Hirens.]

Yes, we want more videos like this !!! Keep up the good work guys !!

[@markmolenaar4479]

Very helpful. 8.5/10

[@christoliver2065]

hashtag bluedot

[@BenDover-xd1jh]

Where is this bluedot I have heard of? Can't see it in any of the videos.

[@screengames5307]

I thought you were talking about the festival

[@ballybunion9]

Recommendations for which format to use in various situations would have been nice.

[@RitterlichOX]

LOL no word about BMP XDD

[@AvoxionYT]

That doesn't exist

[@ishdx9374]

@@froggyfan one advantage of BMP is its very simple, thus can be used as a stub format for something makes developers life easier

[@ishdx9374]

@WalkinOSF ok

[@Oceansta]

LoL yeah BMP deserved a mention.

[@strider029]

"Hawtdawg!"

[@PurpleKnightmare]

This video was awesome! I'm so better informed now! They did not even explain these things so well in art school. More please.

[@madsdarchie579]

They say the king of Spain had a lisp...

[@RyanH0809]

This was crazy helpful. I'll be looking for the audio and video versions next

[@anthonynunya.8082]

seems about as complex as English (there's theirs) (to too two) (many mini) differences.

[@bananya6020]

there they're their compress compress

[@okovermekeamglight4563]

You forgot ICO files

[@danysvideos]

tga etc

[@ishdx9374]

ico files are useless outside icons, they can be "hinted" but not really practical in other cases

[@rwsh6536]

This guy has the lightest Australian accent of all time

[@chat1753]

Fun fact : This guy got fired

[@projectambr]

He got fired?!

[@RockBandRS]

This video came up in my recommended videos (even though I've already seen it), and I clicked on it purely because I was wondering what happened to him.

[@toxicvoid0663]

What about MPEG???

[@06ikonos62]

TOXIC VOID What about Pepe?

[@nowonmetube]

That's a video format silly

[@noobinator9854]

I thought Raw format was the default file format of a given image editor (like PSD is for Photoshop). This video cleared up that misconception.

[@55lumens]

blue dot on your shirt bruh...

[@thiagomarques706]

He looks so upset all the time

[@kraigelliott5374]

Great video with best explanations I have seen in a very concise timeframe. Well done!

[@SorenCowellShah]

His accent tremenda me of Tim Cook’s, and that’s a good thing
