two main kinds of graphics: raster graphics and vector graphics. Raster (or bitmap) graphics is to represent graphics into small rectangular points called pixels. Raster graphics is suitable to store digital photos. In contrast, vector graphics is to represent graphics into geometric objects like lines, curves, polygon, etc. These objects can be enlarged without any loss of quality and with digital photos. GIF Graphics Interchange Format Can only store image in 256 colours. Renowned for its ability to store animations. PNG Portable Network Graphics Provides better lossless compression
