Both formats, briefly
BMPIN
BMP writes pixels to disk almost exactly as they are, with no compression to undo. Files get large quickly, which is why you rarely meet one on a web page, but nothing is approximated and any Windows program can read it. It shows up in older Windows software, in scanner and screen capture output, and wherever a tool wants raw pixel data with no decoding step. Convert to PNG to keep the same quality in a fraction of the space.
TGAOUT
TGA came out of Truevision's early graphics hardware and stayed in use in games and 3D work. It stores 8, 16, 24 or 32 bits per pixel, and the 32 bit version carries a straightforward alpha channel that texture pipelines read without surprises. Compression is optional run length encoding, so decoding stays cheap. Most TGA files you meet are game textures, render output, or source art from older animation tools.
