PNG uses lossless compression. The reduction in file size is less than
with lossy formats like JPEG, but you get a perfect reproduction of the
image. It makes a good replacement for GIF, having better compression,
supporting 48 bit color, alpha channels, and file gamma values. It's
also good for archiving images or other situations where you want to
keep full quality.
