RGBA = 32bit Color - aka True Color + Alpha (best/most colors)
It is short for Red-Green-Blue-Alpha (8 bits each)

It's like RGB (24-bit or True Color) but with an alpha channel too.

Alpha is a channel that sets transparency, so if the alpha channel has a value 127 (out of 255) it would be 50% transparent.
