Why Is it In Your Best Interest To Use PNG File Format in Your Website Designs?
The benefits of using PNG image format in web designing over other image formats such as GIF and JPEG; the image format works well if you need to make really amazing and wonderful icons that will prove alluring to your consumers.The PNG file format was introduced quite a while back; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to cover the drawbacks of the popular GIF file format. However, it failed to create ripples because the the browsers of the time were not designed to support the advanced offerings of PNG so web designers and developers had include it in their designs stingily. One of the main hurdles faced by PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was one of the most popular browsers of the time; IE had limited space for PNG support consequently the format could only be incorporated to a bare minimum. Then, things changed with the introduction of IE7; this latestfresh proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the popularity of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is is often regarded as the best image formats to be introduced so far:
It is possible to create tranparent images or a property known as alpha transparency: When you pitch GIF against PNG, you will see that a very disinct advantage with PNG is that you can only save a particular color transparently through the use of GIF this equates to the fact that you can get the color whether opaque or transparent with nothing in between; however, with PNG, you get a serious advantage; because the format can be used to roduce semi tranparency. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG image with a soft drop shadow and then use it against a background of your choice. You can also use the image as a watermark or a gradient background. The image file type lets you incorporate the glardual fading ofcolors from fully opaque to se through, exposing the webpage that lies in the background
They lookspectacular: Not only do you get surprising flexibility when using PNG images but also ; there are numreous other benefit to using this format. For example, when you use a JPEG image, you lose some of the information on the original file each time the file is saved, so after a while, you will notice a distinct downgrade in the finesse of the pictures. Even though, this concern has now been sortedbeen resolved in the image format and it is possible to save the pictures without sacrificing any information, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite futile if you want to store a snap shot. However, if PNG is incorporated, you will get the most desired benefits of both these formats; you will have access to a an extensive color display similar to 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}.
