Images and Navigation

Which file formats, resolutions and colour modes should I use for my online images?

What kind of navigation do you need, How can you make navigation easier to use?

What will be the best way to organize my images and other blog content?

Here are the answers...
  • RGB- Red,green,blue Is used because colors on screen are made up of different light Intensities.
  • JPEG -  Joint Photographic Expert Group- used for photographs

  • PNG -  Portable graphic Network Graphic, used for Transparent logos Vector art and some photographs

  • GIF- Graphic Interface file, can be animated, used for solid colors, not good for photographs
  • SVG (under development)
Tagging is also a good way to organise your work it allows the viewer to search for a keyword and find that particular word or image.

Remember! 72PPI- keeps file sizes low and is quicker to download this is the recommended size to have your page resolution set at least for the web.
