All gra...
The grandfather of web graphics, and has been around since 1989. Its small file size and support for both transparency and animation makes them popular for web work. The image will come up quickly with less detail but once fully loaded, all detail is present.

Tagged Image File Format (TIF): Raster
Older file format developed in 2009 by Aldus for use in high-end printing and commercial printing. It does not lose quality like a jpg and has several compression options. Can't be used for web graphics though.

Encapsulated Postscript(EPS): Raster or Vector
Crisp lines work well for text, info graphics, and line drawings. Can easily manipulate vector images and apply PANTONE or other spot colors for commercial printing applications. The exception is the Photoshop EPS, which is essentially a TIF file with an EPS extension.

RAW: Raster
Great for photography because it captures the most data from your camera meaning you have the best images possible. One drawback is that the options to manipulate photo formats are limited to Photoshop and whatever software comes with your camera.

Portable Network Graphics(PNG): Raster
Small file size works well for internet work. Supports transparency and only uses indexed color
---
Portable Document Format(PDF): Raster or Vector
While the PDF is not really an image format, it is the universal file format of choice today for top professionals. A PDF file is usually created in a different format and then converted. It locks most users from being able to edit them, making it a file format of choice for ebooks, forms, and large images. The quality can be low or high depending on how it is made.

ORGANIZATION TIPS (These are my personal tips, I don't take inspiration from the internet. However, you can suggest some for me to place here as well. I will credit you for the contribution)
❶ If you are using a mobile device (like me), what I usually do when I ran out of space is that I transfer the important and necessary pictures to my computer and then delete. That way, I can save my edits at the same time, have more space to work with on my phone. I also use Google Drive to have easy access to my photos in both my phone and computer. The problem is, there is a size limit so you can't save every resource there.
❷ I like to put my pictures in folders. I label them accordingly even to the smallest details so that when I have too much graphics, it's easier to find what I need.
(Sorry if it's not readable, this is how much I can crop this out to make this clearer)
