A TGA file is a raster bitmap file originally developed by Truevision Inc. as a means of storing bitmap images at varying color depths, with the ability to also store alpha or transparency information.

The bitmap data can be stored at either 4, 8, 16, or 32 bits per pixel (bpp), allowing efficient use of storage space for images with low color counts. TGA files became popular amongst video game developers, where preserving the detail of the original image was important.

TGA files still retain some support and can be opened with some modern image editing applications; however, the uses for TGA files have largely been re-allocated to modern formats such as PNG, which, along with supporting alpha channels, can also store animation sequences.

A JPG file is a compressed and highly efficient image file format whose aim is to store photographic-quality images using a fraction of the storage space compared to other lossy and non-lossy image compression methods available at the time.

The compression used by JPG encoders is "lossy", meaning image colors that are not perceptible to the human eye are discarded during the compression process. The removal of this color data greatly reduces the size of the final JPG file with no discernible loss in quality.

Due to their compact and high-quality format, JPG files are one of the primary image formats used by websites, digital and phone/tablet cameras, and more. This widespread support means JPG files can be edited within most popular image editing software.
