Yes. PNG. Best lossless format around. It supports 8 and 16 bits, interlace,

PNG is a great format I use a lot for 16 bit and 8 bit. However, I did
have some troubles loading (large) 16bit PNG files into XSI as textures. I
was running into case where they would not load and would render as
no_icons. Switching to uncompressed 16bit TIF format fixed the problem.
So I now avoid using PNGs as textures.
