Difference Image File Extension Type

JPEG@JPG

JPG (or JPEG) is a raster image that is often used for

photographs on the web. JPGs can be optimized, when saving

them out of Photoshop, to find the perfect balance of small

file size and high quality. On the web, you want your images

files to be as small as they can be so your site loads quickly,

but large enough to still appear crisp and not pixilated. A JPG

can’t have a transparent background so they are always in the

shape of a rectangle or square with a solid background.

Best use = rectangle or square photos and

photographs on your website
