Gifs, Pngs, & Jpgs: What's The Difference?



The img tag is used to put an image in an HTML document and it looks like this:

The src attribute tells the browser where to find the image. Like the a tag, this can be absolute, as the above example demonstrates, but is usually relative. For example, if you create your own image and save it as “alienpie.jpg” in a directory called “images” then the code would be <img src='images/alienpie.jpg'...

The width and height attributes are necessary because if they are excluded, the browser will tend to calculate the size as the image loads, instead of when the page loads, which means that the layout of the document may jump around while the page is loading.

PNG2SWF Like JPEG2SWF, only for PNGs. GIF2SWF Converts GIFs to SWF. Also able to handle animated gifs. WAV2SWF Converts WAV audio files to SWFs, using the L.A.M.E. MP3 encoder library. AVI2SWF Converts AVI animation files to SWF. It supports Flash MX H.263 compression. Some examples can be found at examples.html. (Notice: this tool is not. JPEG 100% (no compression): 53.3 KB. JPEG 75%: 33 KB. PNG-24: 19.6 KB. SVG: 6 KB (as a pure vector graphic) In the case of this particular image, there isn’t much.

The alt attribute is the alternative description. This is an accessibility consideration, providing meaningful information for users who are unable to see the image (if they are visually impaired, for example).

Note that, like the br tag, because the img element does not enclose any content, no closing tag is required.

Gifs,

The construction of images for the web is a little outside of the remit of this website, but it is worth noting a few things…

The most commonly used file formats used for images are JPEGs, GIFs, and PNGs. They are compressed formats, and have very different uses.

A JPEG (pronounced “jay-peg”) uses a mathematical algorithm to compress the image and will distort the original slightly. The lower the compression, the higher the file size, but the clearer the image.

JPEGs are typically used for images such as photographs.

A GIF (pronounced “jif”) can have no more than 256 colors, but they maintain the colors of the original image. The lower the number of colors you have in the image, the lower the file size will be. GIFs also allow any pixel in the image to be transparent.

GIFs are typically used for images with solid colors, such as icons or logos.

A PNG (pronounced “ping”) replicates colors, much like a GIF, but allows 16 million colors as well as alpha transparency (that is, an area could be 50% transparent).

PNGs are typically used for versatile images in more complex designs BUT they are not fully supported by some older browsers.

The web is forever getting faster and faster but you obviously want your web pages to download as quickly as possible. Using super-high resolution images isn’t doing your or your user’s bandwidth (or patience) any favors. Image compression is a great tool and you need to strike a balance between image quality and image size. Most modern image manipulation programs allow you to compress images and the best way to figure out what is best suited for yourself is trial and error.
