PNG, short for Portable Network Graphics, is a  Lossless compression image format. This means image data is perfectly preserved, but at a generally much smaller filesize than uncompressed BMP or TGA files. PNGs are particularly suited to images with large sections of solid color, like Computer-generated graphics. PNG also supports an alpha channel.

Usages

• Steam supports taking PNG screenshots.
• Material Editor supports PNG as an input format for creating vtex_c textures.
• James Bond 007: Nightfire uses PNG as it's primary texture format.
