Rich colors, great for photographs that needs fine attention to color detail.
Most used and most widely accepted image format.
Compatible in most OS (Mac, PC, Linux).

GIF:
Can support transparency.
Can do small animation effects.
‘Lossless’ quality–they contain the same amount of quality as the original, except of course it now only has 256 colors.
Great for images with limited colors, or with flat regions of color.
BMP:
Works well with most Windows programs and OS, you can use it as a Windows wallpaper.TIFF:
Very flexible format, it supports several types of compression like JPEG, LZW, ZIP or no compression at all.
High quality image format, all color and data information are stored.
TIFF format can now be saved with layers.
PNG:
Lossless, so it does not lose quality and detail after image compression.
In a lot ways better then GIF. To start, PNG often creates smaller file sizes than GIF.
Supports transparency better than GIF.
