Why Is it In Your Best Interest To Use PNG File Format in Your Website Creation?
The benefits of using PNG image format in web designing over the different image formats such as GIF and JPEG; the image format can be use to make bettergood and efficient web graphics that will wow your customers.
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 imageformat. However, it failed to create ripples because the then browsers were not designed to support the advanced offerings of PNG so website designers and makers were forced to include it in their designs stingily. One of the main hindrances that marred the features of PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was one of the most popular browsers of that period; IE had little or no provision for PNG support which equated to the fact that the format could only be made use of to a bare minimum. However went through a change after the availability of IE7; this latestfresh product from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the utility of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is is often regarded as the the most useful image formats to be introduced so far:
It is possible to create images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or alpha transparency: When you analyze the features of GIF and PNG, will notice that a very disinct advantage with PNG is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color in a transparent format through GIF this simply means that the color can be used whether opaque or transparent with no other color in between with the use of PNG, you get a serious advantage; because the format is capable of producing semi transparent pixels. This simply means that you can save a PNG file 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 smooth fading ofhues from completely opaque to transparent, and hence you will be able to view the webpage below
They lookfantastic: Not only do you get surprising flexibility when using PNG images but also ; there are several a myriad of other advantages to incorporating this format. For instance, if you make use of the JPG Format, you lose a part of the information on the original file every time you save the file, so in time, you will be able to see a distinct deterioration in the quality of the images. Even if, this concern has been solved in GIF and you can store the pictures without sacrificing any details, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite ineffective if you are going to store a snap shot. However, when you use PNG, you will get the most desired attributes of of the image formats; you will have access to a a full color display similar to 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}.
