Description
The Truevision Targa file format, commonly abbreviated as TGA, is a raster graphics file format primarily used for digital images. Developed by Truevision Inc. in the early 1980s, TGA files are well-regarded for their ability to store detailed and high-quality images, including support for alpha channels for transparency. They are often used in various applications such as video editing, animation, and video game textures due to their flexibility and depth of color representation. Although not as widely utilized as formats like JPEG or PNG for web graphics, TGA files remain a popular choice in professional environments where image quality and precision are paramount.
A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
