Why Do You Need to Use PNG Images in Your Web Design?
The benefits of incorporating PNG image format in website designing over other image formats like GIF and JPEG; the image format works well if you need to make really amazing and wonderful icons that will prove alluring to your customers.
The PNG image format was introduced a few years back; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers in the mid 90's to cover the drawbacks of the the common GIF imageformat. However, it did not make an impression because the the browsers of the time were unable to support the advanced features of PNG so website designers and makers were compelled include it in their designs sparingly. One of the primary blocks standing in the way of PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was by far the most famous browsers of the time; IE had little or no provision for PNG support consequently the format could only be used in limited capacity. Then, metamorphosed after the availability of IE7; this new product from Microsoft has helped in increasing the popularity of PNGs. So here is a look 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 pitch GIF against PNG, it will become apparent that one of the major differences is that you can only save a particular color in a transparent format through GIF this equates to the fact that you can get the color whether opaque or transparent with just transparency in between; however, with PNG, you get apecific advantage; because the format is capable of producing semi transparent pixels. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG picture 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 ofhues from fully opaque to absolutely transparent, exposing the webpage underneath
They lookspectacular: It is a well known fact that PNG images give you extreme flexibility also ; there are several a myriad of other benefit to including this format. For instance, if you choose a JPG image, you lose a portion of the information from the initial image whenever you save the file, so in time, you will notice a noticeable deterioration in the finesse of the images. Even if, this problem has been solved in the image format and you can store the images without sacrificing any information, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which makes it quite futile if you have to save a picture. But, if PNG is incorporated, you can get the best attributes of the two file types; you will be provded a an extensive color display like the one used in JPEG file type 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}.
