However, it did not make an impression because the early browsers were not designed to support the advanced features of PNG so web designers and developers had to incorporate it sparingly. One of the primary blocks faced by PNG was with Microsoft's Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of that period; IE had very little place for PNG support which equated to the fact that the format could only be used to a bare minimum. But metamorphosed with the introduction of IE7; this latestfresh product from Microsoft has helped in increasing the popularity of PNGs. So here is why at three reasons why PNG is one of the best image formats in the market today: You will be able to create tranparent images or a property known as alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, it will become apparent that A defnitve difference in the two formats is that you you will be restricted to saving a specific color as transparent in GIF this simply means that the color can be transformed regardless of it being opaque or transparent with just transparency in between with the use of PNG, you get adistinct advantage; because the format supports semi transparent pixels. With this attaribute, you can save a PNG file with a soft drop shadow and then fuse it with a background that suits your taste. You can also use the image as a background with gradient or a water mark. The image file type gives you the option to use the glardual fading ofcolors from completely opaque to transparent, so that you can see the webpage underneath They lookfabulous: Not only do you get surprising flexibility when using PNG images but also ; there are several a myriad of other advantages to using this format. For example, if you choose a JPG image, you lose a part of the details on the original file each time the file is saved, so eventually, you will be able to view a conspicuous decline in the quality of the images. Although, this concern has been solved in in the file type and it is possible to store the pictures without compromising any details, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite futile if you are going to save a snap shot. However, with PNG, you will get the best attributes of both these formats; you will be provded 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}. {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}.
