Why Is it In Your Best Interest To Use PNG Image Format in Your Web Design?
The advanatges of using PNG image format in website designing over various other file types such as GIF and JPEG; the file format helps to make bettergood and efficient web graphics that will entice your visitors.The PNG file format was introduced some time ago; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to make up for the shortcomings of the the common GIF imageformat. However, it did not catch on because the the browsers of the time were not designed to support the advanced offerings of PNG so web designers and developers were forced to to use it sparingly. One of the main blocks standing in the way of PNG was with Microsoft Internet Explorer which was by far the most famous browsers of the time; IE had limited provision for PNG support which meant that the format could only be made use of in the most restricted way. matters went through a change with the introduction of IE7; this new offeringbrowser from Microsoft has aided in increasing the usability of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is is often regarded as the the most innovative image formats to be introduced so far:
It is possible to create images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or a property known as alpha transparency: When you pitch GIF against PNG, you will see that one of the major differences is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color in a transparent format through GIF this equates to the fact that you can get the color whether opaque or transparent with nothing in between; however, with PNG, you get apecific advantage; because the format can be used to roduce semi tranparency. This simply means that you can save a PNG picture with a soft drop shadow and then float it against any background. You can also use the image as a gradient background or water mark. The file type allows for the smooth fading ofhues from completely opaque to absolutely transparent, so that you can see the webpage underneath
They lookfantastic: Not only do you get surprising flexibility when using PNG images but also ; there are numreous other advantages to including this format. For example, when you use a JPEG image, you lose a part of the details on the original file every time the file is saved, so eventually, you will notice a distinct decline in the finesse of the images. Although, this concern has now been sortedbeen resolved in the image format and you can store the pictures without sacrificing any information, GIF has a highly restrictive 256 color palette, which rendersimpart it quite futile if you want to store a picture. However, when you use PNG, you will get the perfect benefits of the two file types; you will have access to a an extensive color display similar to JPEG images and it also}{supports| provides|offers} managed color palette {like|a la| as seen in} GIF files. {Also|At the same time|Another advantage is that} the {compression|storage} of the {file|image|picture} is {lossless|sans loss|without loss} so the {image|picture|photograph} {stays put|stays as it is|does not change} {regardless of how many time you save it|despite innumerable times of saving the file|even if you save the file several times}.
