Why Do You Need to Use PNG Image Format in Your Web Design?
The advanatges of including PNG file format in website designing over various other formats such as GIF and JPEG; the file type helps to make bettergood and spectacular images that will wow your visitors.
The PNG image format was introduced some time ago; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to cover the drawbacks of the popular GIF file type. However, it did not make an impression because the the browsers of the time could not offer support to the progrresiveLstate of the art features of PNG so internet designers and makers were forced to include it in their designs restrictedly. One of the major blocks standing in the way of PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of the time; IE had very little provision for PNG support which meant that the format could only be used to a bare minimum. Then, metamorphosed with the introduction of IE7; this latestfresh offeringbrowser from Microsoft has helped in increasing the usability of PNGs. So here is why at three reasons why PNG is by far the the most useful image formats in the market today:
You will be able to create images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, will notice that a very disinct advantage with PNG is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color transparently through the use of GIF this equates to the fact that the color can be transformed regardless of it being opaque or transparent with just transparency in betweenbut when you use PNG, you get a serious benefit; because the format is capable of producing semi transparent pixels. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG image with a soft drop shadow and then float it against any background. The Image can also be used as a watermark or a gradient background. The format allows for the glardual fading ofcolors from completely opaque to se through, exposing the webpage that lies in the background
They lookspectacular: Apart from the fact, that you get amazing flexibility wit PNG images ; there are numreous other benefit to incorporating this format. For example, if you choose a JPG image, you lose a part of the details from the original file whenever you save the file, so after a while, you will notice a noticeable deterioration in the finesse of the pictures. Although, this issue has now been sortedbeen resolved in the image format and you can save the files without sacrificing any information, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite futile if you have to store a snap shot. But, if PNG is incorporated, you can 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}.
{PNG is self optimizingL Self Optimization is possible in PNG|PNG allows for self optimization}: {One of the hurdles| A major concern|A serious problem} that web {designers|pogrammers} {face|have to tackle|need to handle} {on a daily basis|frequently|veryoften} is the {fact that|issue where|the anomaly due to which} {the contrast and the brightness of the monitor|the brightness and the contrast ratio of the screen|the contrast and brightness of the commuter screen} has to be {adjusted|changed|regulated} to see the {images|pictures|the display} {properly|correctly|appropriately}; {this happens|this problem occurs|the issue comes into the picture} due to {the Gamma settings of different monitors|various Gamma setting used in monitors from different vendors|the difference in the Gamma setting used for the different monitors}. {Gamma|Gamma setting} is a {method|technology|technique} {used|incorported|that helps} to {distribute|scatter|spread} the {luminance|brightness|the light} across the {display surface|screen|monitor display}.
