JPG
Uppercase photo format
JPG is a common file extension for digital images compressed using the JPEG standard.
The format reduces file size by discarding visual information the eye is unlikely to notice, making it ideal for photographs but less suited to graphics with sharp edges or text.
Send me the JPG when you get a chance.
Also written JPEG.
