- RGB- Red, Green, and Blue, 256 shades of the three main colors, most comon for JPEGs
- Indexed colors- locked in to a table of web-frioendly colors, best for GIFs
- CYMK- Cyan, Yellow, Magenta, and blacK, traditional printer's colors (often TIFFs)
- Greyscale- Nice, deep 8 bit black and white, producing a good 256 shades, good old "black and white" photography
- 4 Bit black and white- Maybe a couple of shades of gray plus black and white- looks really graphic like a poster or something.
- 2 Bit- ONLY black and white with no in between, what we used to call "line art"
