Why convert JPG to PNG?
JPG is the most widely supported image format in the world. It uses lossy compression tuned for photographs, which keeps files small at the cost of a little detail. It cannot store transparency.
PNG keeps every pixel exactly and supports transparent backgrounds, which makes it the right choice for screenshots, logos, graphics with text and anything you plan to edit further.
