About the formats
SVG vector
SVG is an XML-based vector format that scales to any size without losing sharpness. It is ideal for logos, icons and illustrations, and can be styled and animated with CSS.
Strengths
- Infinitely scalable, always crisp
- Tiny files for flat graphics
- Editable and styleable as code
Limitations
- Not suitable for photographs
- Complex art can get heavy
- Needs rasterising for some uses
Best for: Logos, icons and illustrations that must stay razor-sharp at every size.
PNG image

Strengths
- Lossless — perfect, repeatable quality
- Full transparency (alpha channel)
- Crisp text, lines and flat colour
Limitations
- Larger files than JPG for photos
- No native animation
- Not ideal for large photographic images
Best for: Logos, icons, screenshots and any graphic that needs transparency or pixel-perfect edges.
