| File extension | .WMF |
| Category | Image File |
| Description | WMF is a vector graphics file format featuring bitmap components and running on 16-bit operating systems. Files comprise a set of function calls, which command vector graphic and bitmap operations, such as drawing lines and other graphic elements, as well as vector images and sometimes raster graphics. The format was introduced with Windows 2.0 in 1988 and is still backed by some Windows applications, such as Windows Photo Viewer. Right now, WMF is less widely used, as it has been pretty much supplanted by JPEG and GIF. |

| File extension | .PNG |
| Category | Image File |
| Description | PNG images provide lossless compression, that is why the quality of the picture is nice, but the size of the file is huge. Because of it this file format is used by photographers. PNG may have several layers of transparency and even include short text descriptions which help search engines to examine the file. Although PNG was developed to replace GIF and partly other formats, it doesn’t support animation since it can’t contain several images like GIF. |
