Great breakdown! One thing I often do when working with web images is converting HEIC or PDF files to PNG for better quality. I usually use heictopng.net
or pdftopng.io
– no install, free, works in browser. Saves a lot of time for designers and content creators

Thanks! Totally agree — format conversion is something people underestimate until it breaks a workflow.
HEIC and PDFs especially can be pretty annoying on Windows and in browsers.
