Why Should You Use PNG Image Format in Your Website Creation?
The benefits of using PNG image format in website creation over the different image formats ;for intance, GIF and JPEG; the file format can be use to make really amazing and spectacular images that will entice your visitors.
The PNG image format was introduced a few years back; it was put forth in the marketlfor consumers in the mid 90's to make up for the shortcomings of the popular GIF file type. However, it failed to create ripples because the then browsers could not offer support to the advanced attributes of PNG so web designers and creators had include it in their designs sparingly. One of the primary hindrances that marred the features of PNG was with Microsoft Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of that period; IE had very little space for PNG support which equated to the fact that the format could only be incorporated to a bare minimum. the scene metamorphosed when IE7 was brought out; this new offeringbrowser from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the utility of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is by far the best image formats around today:
Youcan get tranparent images or a property known as alpha transparency: When you pitch GIF against PNG, will notice that A defnitve difference in the two formats is that you you will be restricted to saving a particular color in a transparent format through GIF this simply means that you can get the color regardless of it being opaque or transparent with just transparency in betweenbut when you use PNG, you get a serious feature over GIF; because the format is capable of producing semi transparent pixels. This simply means that you can save a PNG image 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 slow fading ofcolors from completely opaque to absolutely transparent, exposing the webpage that lies in the background
They lookfabulous: Apart from the fact, that you get amazing flexibility wit PNG images ; there are several a myriad of other benefit to using this format. For instance, when you use a JPEG image, you lose a part of the information from the original file each time you save the file, so eventually, you will notice a noticeable downgrade in the appearance of the media. Although, this issue has been solved in GIF and will be able to store the files without losing any details, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which rendersimpart it quite ineffective if you want to save a photograph. However, when you use PNG, you will get the best attributes of of the image formats; you get a a complete color display similar to 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}.
