What file format should I store my Digital photos in?

TIFF, JPG, and BMP are the most commonly used industry standard file formats for saving your digital photos. TIFF and BMP have been around for as long as I can remember, however JPG is now the most widely used format. Most new digital cameras download their photos to the computer as a JPG file. This saves allot of time for me as I do not have to convert them.

A JPG file saves an image in high quality and also takes up less space. Please be aware that the more mega-pixels your digital camera has, the larger the picture will be when you download it to your computer. if you want to e-mail that picture to someone it will need to be resized because we all know how annoying it is when you receive a really large picture through e-mail. Here is an article on how to resize your photos.
