Why Should You Use PNG Images in Your Website Creation?
The advantages of using PNG image format in website designing over various other formats ;for instance, GIF and JPEG; the file format helps to make really amazing and wonderful icons that will wow your customersThe PNG file format was introduced some time ago; it was brought out in the market around 95/96 to meet the deficiencies of the popular GIF image format. However, it did not make an impression because the the browsers of the time were unable to support the advanced attributes of PNG so internet designers and makers were forced to incorporate it sparingly. One of the major blocks that marred the features 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 little or no place for PNG support consequently the format could only be incorporated in limited capacity. However, matters metamorphosed with the introduction of IE7; this new browser from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the utility of PNGs. So here is a look at three reasons why PNG is by far the most innovative image formats in the market today:
You will be able to create see through images or a feature called alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, it will become apparent that one of the major differences is that you can only save any odd color transparently through the use of GIF which means that you can get the color whether opaque or transparent with nothing in between with the use of PNG, you get a specific benefit; because the format can be used to produce semi transparency. With this attribute, you can save a PNG file with a soft drop shadow and then float it against any background. You can also use the image as a background with gradient or a water mark. The image file type allows for the smooth fading of hues from entirely opaque to transparent, exposing the webpage below
They look spectacular: Not only do you get surprising flexibility when using PNG images but also; there are numerous other advantages to incorporating this format. For instance, when you use a JPEG image, you lose a part of the details from the initial image whenever the file is saved, so in time, you will notice a conspicuous downgrade in the appearance of the media. Even if, this issue has been resolved in in the file type and you will be able to store the images without sacrificing any data, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which makes it quite futile if you have to store a picture. But, when you use PNG, you will get the most desired benefits of the image formats; you get a full color display similar to JPEG file type and it also provides managed color palette like GIF files. Also the storage of the picture is sans loss so the photograph stays as it is regardless of how many time you save it.
PNG is self optimizing: A serious problem that web designers need to handle frequently is the anomaly due to which the contrast and the brightness of the monitor has to be changed to see the pictures properly; this happens due to the difference in the Gamma setting used for the different monitors. Gamma setting is a technology that helps to spread the luminance across the screen. However, diverse operating systems use varying Gamma settings. Therefore, a picture that is color corrected to suit Windows may appear abnormal in Mac. Here again, in this situation the innovative PNG format can help you out, in PNG, you can store the pictures with an inherent Gamma correction feature so whatever operating system you are working on; the Gamma settings will be changed on its own to display an image with the amazing brightness and contrast.
