Indexed-256 and Grayscale each contain up to a maximum of 256 distinct colors and generally are quite small.

oSome file types you can use are: BMP for saving your photos at the highest level of quality with no compression; JPEG for photos you want to use on the web or send via e-mail - it compresses photos down while retaining its overall quality; UPX for saving photos with unmerged, free-floating objects.
