Most good pictures should be around 10-12KB per image. Whether you are using jpgs, pngs or eps files, you need to make the files that you upload to your website as little as practicable. Large images are the reason that pages load slowly. Use the types of graphics that fit the content. For example, if you're putting up a website that is all about ferrets, you don't want to put an image of a dog on your internet site. The picture could be awfully cute, and you may like it a lot, but mull it over from the reader's standpoint. They are visiting your internet site because they need to find out about ferrets. When using photographs, try and use compressed files : rows and JPGs are best. Avoid using photographs that move, blink, flash or rotate. Research has proven that these types of images only provoke and distract internet surfers which isn't what it is all about. What they will wind up doing is cover up the flashing, blinking annoyance to read the copy, or worst still, they'll simply leave. Use vector graphics rather than raster graphics. Vector images are defined by , not pixels. They can be scaled up or down without any loss of quality. Programs like Illustrator make vector photographs, and Photoshop makes raster pictures. There are 2 reasons why you would like to use vector graphics - they are far smaller compared to their raster counterpart, and if you blow it up, it won't pixelate. This is good for Web 2.0 graphics and things like buttons or navigation aids on your website. Vector formats include EPS ( encompassed sequel ), AI ( Adobe Illustrator ), WMF ( Windows Metafile ), DXF ( AutoCAD ), CDR ( CorelDraw ), PLT ( Hewlett Packard Graphics Language Plot File ) and SVG ( Scalable Vector Graphics ). Sizing up or down in Adobe Illustrator then saving the file as a JPEG makes for a very small graphic file. Pictures are typically raster pictures, so you wish to make them as small as practical. The common raster image formats include BMP ( Windows Bitmap ), PCX ( Paintbrush ), JPEG ( Joint Photographics Expert Group ), tiff ( Tag Interleave Format ), PNG ( portable Network Graphic ), GIF ( Graphics Interchange Format ), CPT ( Corel PhotoPAINT ) and PSD ( Adobe PhotoShop ). When it comes to the use of images on your page, you will want to wrap text around it. Generally photos and graphics should add to the overall layout and not take it over or overpower the feel and look of what is presented to the reader. The content is of first importance with the graphics adding to the readability and understanding of what is being presented. ![]()
