Bonus Chapter 1: Prepping Web Graphics In This Chapter Choosing resolution, mode, and format Understanding the GIF, JPEG, and PNG formats Working with Web-safe palettes Looking good in type Optimizing images with Save for Web Specifying JPEG, GIF, and PNG options P reparing an image for display on a Web page can be just as important as creating it. That razor-sharp, 6-megapixel image you care- fully composed through the viewfinder of your digital camera may end up cropped, sliced, and transformed into a minia- ture 128-x-128-pixel graphic perched in a corner of your Web page. Visitors to your site are likely to be more concerned with how quickly the image downloads and how clearly they can view its content than its glorious digital genesis. Photoshop has some marvelous tools for optimiz- ing an image for the Web, but you can (and should) prepare your images ahead of time as well. This chapter introduces you to some of the tools and concepts you need to be familiar with before you start optimizing in earnest. And then, after you do all your prep work, you can optimize your images so they look their very best, download their fastest, or some combination of the two. In most cases, the Save for Web feature provides the kind of automation and preview capabilities you need right inside Photoshop itself. But if you need some additional horsepower, you can also jump to ImageReady for its unique Web features.
BC-2 Understanding Basic Web Optimization Understanding Basic Web Optimization When you create images for the Web, you get the best results if you choose a Web-friendly resolution, color mode, and file format that’s appropriate for the image you want to display. I introduce these concepts for both Web and print in Book II. The following sections offer an overview of basics to con- sider when preparing images for the Web. Choosing a resolution If you’re planning on putting images on the Web, follow these two golden rules: Start out by creating the image at the resolution you’ll use to display it. Images can lose detail when you change the resolution settings after editing. Choose the resolution based on what will look good on a 17-inch screen with resolution settings of 800 x 600, as shown in Figure 1-1. Most Web sites use this standard display. You don’t need a high resolu- tion to display the image on a Web site. Figure 1-1: Use a resolution setting of 800 x 600 pixels for a standard Web image.
Understanding Basic Web Optimization BC-3 Picking a resolution (and sticking with it) Changing resolution is often bad because you always lose some image detail when you convert from one resolution to another while resizing images. Therefore, creating a graphic destined for the Web at the resolution that you’ll use to display it is a good idea. If possible, do not create the image at a different size and change the resolution later. So, when choosing the resolution and size of your images, keep in mind the final destination of the image — that is, Web or print — and how large you want it to appear on the screen or printed page. Smaller monitors display images at 72 ppi. Larger monitors use 96 ppi or 120 ppi. You can use these figures to visualize the size your images will appear on the displays of other users’ computers. For example, a graphic that measures 150 pixels x 150 pixels appears to be about 1.25 x 1.25 inches on a monitor with 120 ppi resolution (rather tiny), but a little more than 2 x 2 inches (relatively large) on a smaller monitor with 72 ppi resolution. Resolution values always translate into sizes. For example, a Photoshop image measuring 600 x 600 pixels created at 600 dpi prints as a 1-x-1-inch square on a 600 dpi printer because each pixel is translated into one printer dot, or as a 2-x-2-inch square on a 300 dpi printer (unless you tell the printer to scale the image to a different size) because each pixel translates into two printer dots. Selecting a color mode In Web graphics terms, color mode refers to the number of colors or grays that appear in an image. Color modes for the Web, which I introduce in Book II, Chapter 2, include the following: Grayscale: 256 different gray levels Indexed Color: 256 or fewer colors RGB: 16.7 million different colors created from red, green, and blue values In practical terms, only Grayscale, Indexed Color, and RGB are used for the Web because they’re the only modes supported by the two most popular Web-capable image file formats, GIF and JPEG (which I describe later in this chapter).
