Why Should You Use PNG Images in Your Website Designs?
The advanatges of incorporating PNG images in website designing over other formats such as GIF and JPEG; the image format can be use to make really amazing and efficient web graphics that will prove alluring to your consumers.
The PNG image format was introduced a few years back; it was put forth in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to cover the drawbacks of the the common GIF file type. However, it failed to create ripples because the then browsers were unable to support the progrresiveLstate of the art offerings of PNG so internet designers and developers were forced to include it in their designs stingily. One of the major hurdles that marred the features of PNG was with Microsoft Internet Explorer which was by far the most famous browsers of the time; IE had very little place for PNG support which meant that the format could only be incorporated in the most restricted way. the scene went through a change when IE7 was brought out; this new product 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 innovative image formats to be introduced so far:
It is possible to create see through images or a property known as alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, it will become apparent that A defnitve difference in the two formats is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color in a transparent format through GIF this equates to the fact that the color can be used whether opaque or transparent with nothing in between with the use of PNG, you get a serious advantage; because the format can be used to roduce semi tranparency. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG picture with a soft drop shadow and then use it against a background of your choice. Through this feature you will be able to use an image as a background with gradient or a water mark. The format lets you incorporate the smooth fading ofshades from entirely opaque to se through, exposing the webpage below
They lookfabulous: It is a well known fact that PNG images give you extreme flexibility also ; there are several a myriad of other benefit to using this format. For instance, if you make use of the JPG Format, you lose a portion of the information on the original file every time the file is saved, so in time, you will be able to see a distinct decline in the quality of the pictures. Although, this problem has been solved in the image format and you can store the pictures without compromising any information, GIF has a highly restrictive 256 color palette, which rendersimpart it quite ineffective if you have to store a photograph. But, with PNG, you will get the best attributes of the two file types; you will have access to a a full color display like the one used in 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}.
