PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is an extensible file format for the
lossless, portable, well-compressed storage of raster images. PNG
provides a patent-free replacement for GIF, and can also replace many
-common uses of TIFF. Indexed-color, grayscale, and truecolor images are
-supported, plus an optional alpha channel. Sample depths range from
-1 to 16 bits.

PNG is designed to work well in online viewing applications, such
as the World Wide Web, so it is fully streamable with a progressive
display option. PNG is robust, providing both full file integrity
checking and fast, simple detection of common transmission errors.
-Also, PNG can store gamma and chromaticity data for improved color
-matching on heterogeneous platforms.
