PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless compression image format widely used for web, image processing, and images with transparent backgrounds. It supports 24-bit color depth and alpha channel transparency, ensuring high-quality images across different devices and platforms. Compared to traditional formats like JPEG, PNG offers higher image quality and richer color representation, making it ideal for saving complex graphics, icons, and screenshots. Additionally, PNG files often include metadata (such as author information, copyright information, etc.), facilitating management and search.
PNG was designed to replace the GIF format, addressing its patent issues and providing better transparency support and a larger color range. It is widely used in web design, UI/UX design, digital art creation, and various types of projects.

What is an ICO file?
ICO is a specialized file format used by Windows to store icons for applications, folders, and websites. An ICO file can contain multiple images of different sizes and color depths, such as 16×16, 32×32, and 48×48, to ensure proper display across different interfaces. It supports transparency and can use lossless or lossy compression for optimization. In addition to Windows, ICO files are commonly used as favicons for websites. Recommended editors include IcoFX and GIMP, while ImageMagick can be used for format conversion.
