Why Is it In Your Best Interest To Use PNG Image Format in Your Website Designs?
The pros of including PNG image format in website creation over various other image formats such as GIF and JPEG; the file type helps to make really amazing and efficient web graphics that will entice your visitors.The PNG file type was introduced some time ago; it was put forth in the marketlfor consumers in the mid 90's to make up for the shortcomings of the popular GIF file format. However, it did not catch on because the then browsers could not offer support to the progrresiveLstate of the art offerings of PNG so web designers and creators had to incorporate it stingily. One of the main hindrances that marred the features of PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was the most well known and widely used browsers of that period; IE had limited provision for PNG support consequently the format could only be used in limited capacity. Then, metamorphosed after the availability of IE7; this latestfresh offeringbrowser from Microsoft has helped in increasing the usability of PNGs. So lets take a look at three reasons why PNG is by far the best image formats in the market today:
It is possible to create tranparent images or a feature called alpha transparency: When you compare PNG with GIF, you will see 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 you can get the color regardless of it being opaque or transparent with just transparency in between with the use of PNG, you get apecific feature over GIF; because the format supports semi transparent pixels. This feature gives you the ability to save a PNG picture with a soft drop shadow and then fuse it with a background that suits your taste. The Image can also be used as a background with gradient or a water mark. The file type lets you incorporate the glardual fading ofhues from fully opaque to transparent, so that you can see the webpage below
They lookfabulous: Apart from the fact, that you get amazing flexibility wit PNG images ; there are numreous other benefit to using this format. For instance, when you use a JPEG image, you lose some of the data from the initial image each time the file is saved, so after a while, you will be able to see a noticeable decline in the appearance of the images. Even though, this problem has now been sortedbeen resolved in the image format and will be able to save the pictures without sacrificing any data, GIF has a limited color palette of 256, which rendersimpart it quite useless if you want to save a photograph. On the other hand, when you use PNG, you will get the best attributes of both these formats; you will be provded a a complete color display like the one used in 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}.
