Convert JPG to PNG
Converting JPG to PNG gives you a lossless copy that won't degrade further when you edit and re-save it — useful for graphics work, screenshots and anything you'll mark up. PNG also supports transparency, so it's the right starting point if you plan to cut out a background. Keep in mind the PNG will be larger than the JPG.
