Some of the commonly used file formats for pictures are PNG, GIF and JPEG, all of these file formats has its own traits so lets look at the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing these file formats, the type of image that should meet the expectations your website and optimizing your web graphics for the web usage.
GIF: The full form is Graphics Interchange Format; this is one of the most commonly used file types. The reason for its popularity is its tiny image size which makes uploading less time consuming. But like in the JPEG format, information is not lost in this image format this means you can store the file in a smaller size without messing the image quality. The format is also known to support transparency in graphics, it is one of the most suitable file formats for web graphic creation. Unlike the other file types, scope for animation is also possible in GIF. If you would like to consider GIF image optimization, it is important to restrict the size of the file; it would be best that you select a 32 color palette to create the smallest possible size.
JPEG: This stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group; the file type is usually known as JPG and is frequently incorporated in web designing. One of the main advantages of utilizing this type of image is that you will be able to save the pictures in true color that gives you an impressive range of 16 million colors; this renders the image type appropriate for storing photographs and graphics that boast of detailed color work. One of the issues of using JPG is the loss of details that is encountered each time the picture is stored; this points to the fact that the graphic is susceptible to clarity issues and many information may be lost. Unlike the GIF format, transparency is not possible in this file format. If you have chosen an innovative image editing program such as the Adobe Photoshop, you will be able to pick the image quality and the image file size ; however, it is imperative to understand that a lower resolution will mean a small size, which is convenient to upload.
PNG: Is stands for Portable Network Graphics and is a relatively new image format. This format is available in two versions types; PNG-8 which is the 8 bit color format and the PNG-24 which has 24 color graphics. PNG-8 can compress pictures with fantastic detail and without the usual loss of information experienced in GIF files; this leads to improved quality pictures and quick upload time. But, PNG-24 is not as efficacious as JPG when you have to store photos and other images that require a more detailed color palette. The file type is loss-less; this means that the image holds on to its clarity and quality. PNG-24 offers transparency support and you can utilize different levels of the transparency feature in this format. When you use this file format the pictures are better looking because they do not have the tell tale jagged edges when inserted on a background with contrasting colors like GIF files.
