Why Do You Need to Use PNG File Format in Your Website Creation?
The pros of using PNG image format in website designing over other image formats like GIF and JPEG; the file format works well if you need to make really amazing and spectacular images that will wow your consumers.The PNG file type was introduced a few years back; it was put forth in the marketlfor consumers around 95/96 to cover the drawbacks of the popular GIF file format. However, it failed to create ripples because the the browsers of the time were not designed to support the advanced offerings of PNG so internet designers and makers were forced to include it in their designs stingily. One of the primary hindrances faced by PNG was with Microsoft's flagship product, Internet Explorer which was one of the most popular browsers of the time; IE had limited space for PNG support consequently the format could only be used to a bare minimum. matters changed with the introduction of IE7; this new offeringbrowser from Microsoft has proved immensely useful in increasing increasing the utility of PNGs. So here is a look at three reasons why PNG is by far the best image formats to be introduced so far:
You will be able to create images that can be superimposed due to their transarentcy or a property known as alpha transparency: When you analyze the features of GIF and PNG, it will become apparent that a very disinct advantage with PNG is that you can only save a specific color as transparent in GIF this simply means that the color can be transformed whether opaque or transparent with nothing in between with the use of PNG, you get apecific 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 float it against any background. You can also use the image as a watermark or a gradient background. The image file type allows for the glardual fading ofcolors from completely opaque to transparent, exposing the webpage that lies in the background
They lookfabulous: Apart from the fact, that you get amazing flexibility wit PNG images ; there are numreous other benefit to including this format. For example, when you use a JPEG image, you lose a portion of the details on the original file each time you save the file, so eventually, you will be able to view a noticeable deterioration in the quality of the pictures. Although, this issue has been solved in in the file type and you can save the images without sacrificing any data, GIF only allows for a limited 256 color palette, which makes it quite useless if you want to store a picture. On the other hand, when you use PNG, you could get the perfect benefits of of the image formats; you will have access to a a complete 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}.
