Choosing the right image format can make a real difference. A PNG logo on a website loads fine at 150KB. The same image saved as a JPG at similar quality might be 40KB. A WebP version could drop that to 25KB while looking identical to the eye. Format matters for loading speed, storage, compatibility, and whether transparency is preserved.
This tool converts between the 8 most common image formats: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, ICO, AVIF, and TIFF. All processing runs directly in your browser. Your files never leave your device, and the tool works on any operating system without installing anything.

When Should You Convert Image Formats
JPG works well for photographs and images with many colors. It compresses well but doesn't support transparency. Uploading photos to a website or sending them by email, JPG is usually the right choice.
PNG is better for logos, icons, and graphics that require a transparent background. Files are larger than JPG but preserve every detail exactly. Use PNG when transparency or sharp edges matter.
WebP is a modern format developed by Google. It produces files about 25 to 35% smaller than JPG and 20 to 30% smaller than PNG at similar quality. Most browsers support it, making it a solid choice for websites.
ICO files are used for website favicons and Windows application icons. Converting a PNG to ICO is common when setting up a new website or app. AVIF pushes compression further than WebP and is worth using for high-traffic pages where every kilobyte counts.
Real World Examples
Converting product photos for an online store
An e-commerce seller photographs products against a white background. The camera saves files as TIFF at around 20MB each. Uploading 100 product images to their store platform requires much smaller files. Converting to WebP at default quality drops each image to roughly 80 to 120KB — a 99% reduction with no visible quality loss on screen.
Preparing a transparent logo for a website header
A designer delivers a logo as a JPG, but the client needs it on a dark background with no white box around it. JPG doesn't support transparency, so the designer converts the file to PNG, removes the background in an editor, and exports a clean transparent logo at around 15KB. ICO conversion then creates the favicon from the same PNG.
Reducing image size before emailing attachments
A photographer wants to send 12 wedding photos to a client. Each PNG straight from Lightroom is 8 to 12MB. Most email providers limit attachments to 25MB total. Converting to JPG at 85% quality brings each file to 1 to 2MB, well within limits, and the images still look excellent at full size on a monitor.

Tips for Best Results
- Use PNG for logos, icons, and anything with text or sharp edges. JPG compression blurs those details.
- WebP is the best all-around format for websites. It gives smaller files than both JPG and PNG.
- Avoid converting JPG to PNG if you want a smaller file. PNG is lossless and will usually be larger.
- For favicon creation, start from a high-resolution PNG (at least 256x256) before converting to ICO.
- AVIF offers the best compression of any format here but takes longer to encode. Use it for high-traffic pages.
- Converting between lossless formats (PNG to TIFF, TIFF to BMP) never reduces quality. Converting to JPG always does.
- Files up to 50MB are supported. For very large images (over 20MB), the conversion may take a few seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the image converter free to use?
Yes. The tool is completely free and doesn't require an account or sign-up.
Are my images stored on your servers?
No. All processing happens in your browser. Your files are never sent to our servers.
What is the maximum file size?
You can upload images up to 50MB. For best performance, we recommend files under 10MB.
Which formats can I convert between?
You can convert between JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, ICO, AVIF, and TIFF. Not every combination is supported, but the most common ones are.
Will I lose quality when converting?
Converting to PNG, WebP (lossless mode), TIFF, or BMP preserves quality exactly. Converting to JPG uses lossy compression, so some quality reduction occurs, especially at lower quality settings.
What is the difference between WebP and AVIF?
Both are modern web formats that beat JPG and PNG on file size. AVIF typically achieves 20 to 30% better compression than WebP but takes longer to encode and decode. WebP is more widely supported and a safer choice for broad browser compatibility.
