[comp.sys.mac] File Types

Hi!  I was wondering if anyone had something online that would describe the
differences (technical and non technical, basic or advanced etc etc) between
the different types of graphics (TIFF, PICT, MacPaint, GIF or any others that
I don't know about...)

ANY information would be useful!

Thanks in advance!

In the March 1989 MacUser beginning on p 189 is the first of a two-part series
on exactly this question, entitled "Putting it Graphically", by Savatore 
Parascandolo.
