Icon sizes: 256x256, 64x64, 48x48, 32x32, 24x24, 16x16, 512x512 File formats: ICO, GIF, PNG, BMP ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Why Do You Need to Use PNG Image Format in Your Website Creation?The benefits of including PNG image format in website creation over various other file types such as GIF and JPEG; the image format works well if you need to make bettergood and wonderful icons that will prove alluring to your customers.The PNG file format was introduced quite a while back; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to meet the deficiencies of the popular GIF imageformat. However, it did not make an impression because the the browsers of the time were not designed to support the progrresiveLstate of the art features of PNG so web designers and creators were forced to include it in their designs restrictedly. One of the main blocks standing in the way of PNG was with Microsoft Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of the time; IE had limited space for PNG support which equated to the fact that the format could only be made use of in limited capacity. But metamorphosed when IE7 was brought out; this new offeringbrowser from Microsoft has aided in increasing the usability of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is one of the the most innovative image formats to be introduced so far: You will be able to create images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or alpha transparency: When you pitch GIF against PNG, will notice that one of the major differences is that you can only save a specific color as transparent in GIF this simply means that you can get the color regardless of it being opaque or transparent with just transparency in between; however, with PNG, you get adistinct benefit; because the format supports semi transparent pixels. This simply means that you can save a PNG file 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 gradient background or water mark. The format allows for the smooth fading ofshades from entirely opaque to transparent, so that you can see the webpage underneath They lookfantastic: Apart from the fact, that you get amazing flexibility wit PNG images ; there are several a myriad of other benefit to including this format. For example, if you make use of the JPG Format, you lose a part of the details from the original file every time the file is saved, so in time, you will notice a conspicuous deterioration in the quality of the pictures. Even if, this concern has now been sortedbeen resolved in in the file type and will be able to store the images without compromising any data, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which makes it quite ineffective if you want to store a picture. But, with PNG, you can get the best attributes of of the image formats; you will have access to a a complete color display like the one used in JPEG format 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}. {PNG is self optimizingL Self Optimization is possible in PNG|PNG allows for self optimization}: {One of the hurdles| A major concern|A serious problem} that web {designers|pogrammers} {face|have to tackle|need to handle} {on a daily basis|frequently|veryoften} is the {fact that|issue where|the anomaly due to which} {the contrast and the brightness of the monitor|the brightness and the contrast ratio of the screen|the contrast and brightness of the commuter screen} has to be {adjusted|changed|regulated} to see the {images|pictures|the display} {properly|correctly|appropriately}; {this happens|this problem occurs|the issue comes into the picture} due to {the Gamma settings of different monitors|various Gamma setting used in monitors from different vendors|the difference in the Gamma setting used for the different monitors}. {Gamma|Gamma setting} is a {method|technology|technique} {used|incorported|that helps} to {distribute|scatter|spread} the {luminance|brightness|the light} across the {display surface|screen|monitor display}.
