PNG-24 (24-bit RGB)
The standard for opaque, true-color lossless images on the web.
PNG-24 is the standard version of the PNG format for opaque, full-color images. It supports 24-bit color depth, which allows for over 16 million distinct colors (True Color)—the same color range as a standard JPEG. Unlike JPEG, however, PNG-24 uses lossless compression. This means it preserves every single pixel exactly as it was created, with absolutely no blurring or artifacts. This makes PNG-24 the ideal choice for complex graphics, screenshots, and detailed diagrams where quality is paramount and transparency is not needed. Note that while 'PNG-24' is often used to refer to any true-color PNG, strictly speaking, it refers to the RGB variant without an alpha channel. If you need transparency, you are technically using PNG-32 (RGB + Alpha).
A PNG-24 image consists of three color channels: Red, Green, and Blue. Each channel uses 8 bits of data per pixel, resulting in 24 bits total (8+8+8). This allows for 256 levels of intensity for each primary color, combining to produce 16,777,216 possible colors. Because it lacks an alpha channel, every pixel in a PNG-24 file is fully opaque. While the PNG specification allows for a 'tRNS' chunk to define a single specific color as transparent (similar to GIF), this is rarely used in modern web design in favor of the full alpha transparency found in PNG-32.
PNG-24 was part of the original PNG 1.0 specification released in 1996. It was designed as a direct, patent-free competitor to JPEG for lossless image storage. While JPEG won the war for photographs due to its superior compression ratios, PNG-24 became the standard for screenshots, diagrams, and digital art where preserving exact pixel values was more important than file size.
Quite OK Image Format
Lossless compression that is incredibly fast.
QOI (Quite OK Image Format) is a modern lossless image format created by Dominic Szablewski in 2021. It was designed to be a simpler, faster alternative to PNG, prioritizing encoding and decoding speed over maximum compression ratio.
The QOI specification fits on a single page of paper. It achieves compression ratios similar to PNG but encodes 20x-50x faster and decodes 3x-4x faster. It uses a simple streaming algorithm with a running array of previously seen colors.
Released in 2021 as a reaction to the complexity of formats like PNG and the slowness of their reference implementations. It quickly gained viral popularity in the developer community.
