Why Is it In Your Best Interest To Use PNG Image Format in Your Website Designs?
The advanatges of including PNG images in web designing over other formats like GIF and JPEG; the file type works well if you need to make really amazing and spectacular images that will wow your visitors.The PNG file format was introduced a few years back; it was brought out in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to cover the drawbacks of the traditional GIF imageformat. However, it failed to create ripples because the early browsers were unable to support the progrresiveLstate of the art features of PNG so web designers and makers were compelled include it in their designs sparingly. One of the major hindrances that marred the features of PNG was with Microsoft's Internet Explorer which was one of the most popular browsers of the time; IE had little or no provision for PNG support consequently the format could only be made use of in limited capacity. matters went through a change after the availability of IE7; this latestfresh offeringbrowser from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the popularity of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is one of the best image formats around today:
Youcan get images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or a feature called alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, it will become apparent that one of the major differences is that you will only be able to save a particular color as transparent in GIF this equates to the fact that the color can be transformed whether opaque or transparent with no other color in between with the use of PNG, you get a serious benefit; because the format can be used to roduce semi tranparency. This feature gives you the ability to save a PNG image 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 file type lets you incorporate the glardual fading ofcolors from completely opaque to absolutely transparent, exposing the webpage below
They lookfantastic: It is a well known fact that PNG images give you extreme flexibility also ; there are several a myriad of other advantages to incorporating this format. For instance, if you choose a JPG image, you lose a portion of the information on the original file every time you save the file, so in time, you will be able to see a conspicuous decline in the appearance of the media. Even though, this problem has been solved in the image format and you can save the files without sacrificing any information, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which rendersimpart it quite useless if you want to store a photograph. But, if PNG is incorporated, you could get the best features of both these formats; you will be provded a a complete color display like with JPEG file type 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}.
