  9. graphics-visual presentation presented on some surface, such as a wall, canvas, computer screen, paper or stone to brand inform, illustrate, or entertain.
  10. GIF does better with a few more distinct colors than JPEG can. GIF can hold more larger areas than JPEG can and more efficiently. JPEG can't hold as much data as Gif. JPEG will do better on more complex and subtly rendered images, and semi-realistic artwork than GIF can. Although, JPEG has a harder time with sharp edges. An example of sharp edges would be a row of pure-black pixels to a row of pure white pixels. These edges usually tend to become more blured than GIF. The reason for these sharp edges being better in GIF is because they are more rare in GIF files than in JPEG files. Images that should tnever be converted by JPEG files are black and white images. They violate all conditions. It should be noted that GIF is lossless for grey-scale images while JPEG is not, but JPEGnoted that a grey scale is not useful for up to 16 grey scale levels
