Different situations call for different image formats. A logo needs PNG for transparency. A photo needs JPG or WebP for small file size. A modern website should use AVIF for best compression.

When to Use Each Format

JPG

Universal photo format. Lossy compression, no transparency. Every device supports it.

Best for: Photos, social media, email attachments, maximum compatibility.

PNG

Lossless, supports full transparency. Larger files but perfect quality.

Best for: Logos, icons, screenshots, graphics with text, transparent backgrounds.

WebP

Google's modern format. 25-30% smaller than JPG, supports transparency.

Best for: Web images — the default recommendation for most web use cases.

AVIF

Newest format. 50% smaller than JPG, supports transparency and HDR. Growing browser support.

Best for: Maximum compression. Future-proofing your website.

How to Convert

  • Upload your image in any format
  • Choose your target format
  • Adjust quality settings for lossy formats
  • Download the converted file
Converting from lossy to lossy compounds quality loss. Start from the original high-quality source when possible.

Quick Comparison

  • File size (best to worst): AVIF, WebP, JPG, PNG
  • Transparency support: PNG, WebP, AVIF — not JPG
  • Browser support (broadest): JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF

For web: resize to display dimensions, convert to WebP at quality 80-85. Best balance of quality, size, and compatibility.

For logos: keep source as PNG, create WebP version for web.
