Choosing An Appropriate Image Format For Your Icons.
There are numerous image file formats that can be used for saving icons and for a newbie web creator this can usually lead to a major issue because you will have to understand how to utilize a specific format, here is a a look at the benefits and drawbacks of some well known formats.If you find yourself drawn to web graphic designing or wish to create graphical representations for your web site, it is imperative to find out more about the various file formats and their traits so that you can make use of the appropriate file type for graphics. Normally used file types for images are JPEG, PNG and GIF, each one of these formats boasts of a fair share of advantages so lets talk about the benefits and drawbacks of using these file formats, the type of image format that will live up to the requirements of your web page and optimizing your icons for the internet.
GIF: The full form is Graphics Interchange Format; this is one of the most commonly used file types. The popularity of this format can be attributed tiny image size which makes uploading less time consuming. Also like JPEG, data is not lost in this file type ; this equates to the fact that you will be able to store the file at just a few bytes and without messing the image quality. Since GIF supports transparency in graphics, it is one of the most commonly used image formats for picture creation. Unlike the other file types, animation is also offered in GIF. If you wish to go for GIF file optimization, it is necessary to limit the file size; it is recommended that you choose a 32 color palette to achieve a suitably small size.
JPEG: This is short for Joint Photographic Experts Group; the file type is generally called JPG and is often incorporated on websites. One of the principle advantages of utilizing this type of file is that you could store the graphics in true color that offers you an impressive range of 16 million colors; this makes the image type appropriate for use with photographs and pictures that include vast color work. One of the cons of utilizing JPG is the data loss that is encountered each time the file is stored; this points to the fact that the image is marred by compromised clarity and a lot of information may be lost. Unlike other file formats such as GIF, transparency is not possible in this file type. If you have chosen an innovative image editor for instance, the Adobe Photoshop, you can pick the quality and the file size ; however, it is imperative to realize that a lower resolution will mean a small size, which is convenient to upload.
PNG: Is an abbreviation for Portable Network Graphics and is a very new image format. PNG is offered in two versions types; PNG-8 which offers 8 bit color format and the PNG-24 which has 24 color pictures. PNG-8 can curtail the size pictures with wonderful detail and without the normal loss of details observed in in GIF images; this gives high quality pictures and quick upload time. But, PNG-24 is not as effective as JPG when you need to store photographs and other images that need a more detailed palette of colors. The format is sans loss; this means that the picture maintains its quality and clarity. PNG-24 offers the transparency feature and you can use varying degrees of of the feature in this file format. When you use this file format the images are smoother because they do not have the jagged edges when inserted on a background with contrasting colors like GIF files.
