 DDS is a texture container file format, it stands for '''D'''irect '''D'''raw '''S'''urface.
-"Container" means it can contain a variety of image formats: compressed or uncompressed, various bit depths, optionally with [[MipMap|mip maps]], and can be stored in various layouts: 2D, 3D volume texture, or [[Cube map]] environment.
+"Container" means it can contain a variety of image formats: compressed or uncompressed, various bit depths, optionally with [[MipMap|mip maps]], and can be stored in various layouts: 2D, 3D volume texture, or [[Cube map]].
 [[DXT]] is a popular compression format to use inside a DDS file. DXT compression is widely supported on current graphics hardware, meaning it will stay compressed in video memory, allowing the artist to use more or larger textures.
