BMP File Type

BMP is a graphics file format used to store bitmap image data. The BMP file extension is often used for screen shots, icons, or other images that are not likely to change once they are created. The size of the BMP file depends on the type of image that it stores. For example, a small icon may be only 24x24 pixels in size while a high quality photograph will require much more space. An open .BMP file can be displayed in an application by double clicking it.

PNG File Type

PNG is an acronym for 'Portable Network Graphic'. PNG is a lossless compression image file format developed to replace the older, GIF file format. When you open up a PNG file, you will see that it looks like any other graphic. The difference between JPEG and PNG files is that the pixel color information is stored in 8 bits per pixel (giving 4 levels of grayscale) rather than 24 bits per pixel (giving 16.7 million levels of grayscale).
