About the formats
WebP image
WebP is a modern Google format that delivers both lossy and lossless compression with transparency and animation. It typically produces noticeably smaller files than JPG or PNG at the same quality.

Limitations
- Not supported by some older software
- Less universal than JPG for sharing
- Limited print workflow support
Best for: Web images where page speed matters — photos, graphics and simple animations alike.

- Bundles multiple sizes in one file
- Supports transparency
Limitations
- Tiny dimensions only
- Not for general photos
- Limited editor support
Best for: Website favicons and Windows app icons — usually made from a PNG or SVG.
