A standard 24bit JPG file can have up to 16,777,216 different colours.
This is split by 8 bits for each Red, Green and Blue component.
2 to the power of 8 is 256.
So each of the red, green and blue components has 256 different shades, combining these together gets us 256*256*256 = 16,777,216.
More or less bits can be allocated to the RGB components of a jpg file but it should follow roughly the same principle.

Which supports more colore JPEG or GIF?
JPEG represents the color on 24bit (i.e. 2^24 colors).GIF only supports 2^8 colors = 256 colorsThe answer is JPEG.
Who invented jpeg?
robert swirsky invented jpeg to push 10 million colors in a photo!
JPEG supports up to 256 colours?
Jpeg supports up to 24 bit RBG (2^24 colors).
How do you get rid of JPEG image?
If you've saved an image as a JPEG, tough luck. It's gone for good, unless you have all the colors of the original image(I'm assuming that you have a computer-generated image that you save as a JPEG) saved somewhere safe, like in your custom colors section, and you are willing to take the time to replace all the colors.
What file format reduces the number of colors based on a user-adjusted sliding scale?
Jpeg
Which formats supports 16 million colors is optimized for photographs and complex graphics and is the format of choice for photographers on the web?
JPEG file format which have .jpg or .jpeg extension at the end of file name.
What advantage does the gif file format have over the JPEG format?
GIF is an indexed image. Meaning it can only have 256 colors. However .GIF can be animated and they can have a transparent background. .JPEG can not be animated and can not have transparent backgrounds. While .JPEG are full color, not limited to 256 colors (8-bit). So .GIF are used for animated images, and images with only a few colors. .GIF makes sharp, crisp images. .GIF images are used in web design. On the other hand .JPEG seem to blur the pixels together. But that is fine for photographs. So use .JPEG for photographs or artwork. Use .GIF for animations, transparent backgrounded images, and things that need crisp edges, like web design. somboy
Image files that are repeatedly compressed by the JPEG algorithm suffer visible quality degradation?
There are some opinions that this is the case (see the link "JPEG Image Compression Degradation"), but I cannot agree. Normally there is no major degradation of the image by repeating the open/save jpeg operation again and again. The reason is the after the first compression step, the image colors are shifted to improve the jpeg image. After the second open the colors are already very close to the jpeg compressed data and there will be no significant change anymore. There are minimal differences, but this is it. Even with 5% quality, the output image quality remains stable. The file size remains also stable.
Which JPEG file tahes up the least amount of memory?
JPEG is a bitmap file type. There are many bitmap file types but JPEG is the one which uses the least amount of memory. However, JPEG image file sizes can be changed by how they are saved in the data loss compression feature which JPEG uses.
What format is best for wordpress graphics?
There are many formats such as jpeg,gif,png and (for favicons) ico. Jpeg format is the best
What is the difference between GIF and JPEG image formats?
A GIF animation is essentially a flipbook, it is several frames put together in order to "simulate" animation. Gif animations are often crude and low resolution. Flash anim. on the other hand is made with Dreamweaver (or some other program), where the possibilities of creation(animation) are endless :)
What is an animated JPEG?
Animated JPEG are multiple single jpeg images that is runned under a javascript which runs the jpeg like a animated GIF, by frames of each images.
