Why Should You Use PNG Images in Your Website Creation?
The benefits of incorporating PNG image format in website designing over various other formats such as GIF and JPEG; the image format helps to make bettergood and wonderful icons that will entice your customers.
The PNG image format was introduced a few years back; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers in the mid 90's to meet the deficiencies of the the common GIF file type. However, it did not catch on because the the browsers of the time were unable to support the progrresiveLstate of the art features of PNG so website designers and developers had to incorporate it restrictedly. One of the major hindrances faced by PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of that period; IE had little or no place for PNG support which meant that the format could only be incorporated in the most restricted way. However went through a change when IE7 was brought out; this new offeringbrowser from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the usability of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is is often regarded as the the most innovative image formats in the market today:
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 one of the major differences is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color transparently through the use of GIF this equates to the fact 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 benefit; because the format is capable of producing semi transparent pixels. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG image with a soft drop shadow and then use it against a background of your choice. The Image can also be used as a gradient background or water mark. The format lets you incorporate the slow fading ofshades from entirely opaque to absolutely transparent, and hence you will be able to view 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 advantages to including this format. For instance, if you choose a JPG image, you lose a portion of the information from the original file every time you save the file, so eventually, you will be able to view a noticeable downgrade in the quality of the pictures. Even though, this problem has been solved in in the file type and will be able to store the images without losing any data, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite futile if you have to store a photograph. But, when you use PNG, you will get the best features of the two file types; you will be provded 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}.
