What 16:9 means
For every 16 units of width, a 16:9 image has 9 units of height. The ratio describes shape, not resolution: 1280 × 720 and 1920 × 1080 share it. Cropping removes content outside the frame rather than stretching it.

JPG uses lossy compression to create small files and works best for photographs, but it does not support transparency. PNG uses lossless compression, preserves sharp details and transparency, and is best for graphics, logos, and screenshots, though files are often larger. WebP can produce smaller files than JPG or PNG, supports transparency, and is a strong choice for modern websites. Choose JPG for photos and broad compatibility, PNG when exact detail or transparency matters, and WebP when reducing web page file size is the priority.
