Stands for scalable vector graphics. An image format that is infinitely scalable, without stretching out pixels. Not typically used for photographs, but for more abstract style graphics. Uses shapes and paths, along with algorithms to determine how to scale an image: a mathematical formula is applied to each element to make the graphic bigger.
Inkscape is my favorite SVG editor!
