Overview:
This course covers the
concepts and techniques for optimising images for display on the Internet.
Delegates will learn basic techniques and concepts about image resolution and
methods for reducing file size. Students will also learn about several graphic
formats that are appropriate for Web images, and how to choose the best one for
various types of images. The course will show to optimise images for display on
multiple platforms. Delegates will also use ImageReady with PhotoShop to prepare
images for the Web, and will use ImageReady to create animations.
Course Objectives:
 |
Use
both Photoshop and ImageReady to create small, efficient Web graphics for
fast downloads.
|
 |
Understand
GIF, JPEG, and PNG file formats to choose the right one for each image.
|
 |
Calibrate
your monitor, and preview images for both platforms so you can adjust images
so they'll appear good on both Windows and Macintosh computers.
|
 |
Control
dithering in images, using it when necessary to improve images, and avoiding
it at times when it detracts from the quality.
|
 |
Use
the Web palette appropriately to optimise images so they'll appear good on
computers displaying only 256 colours.
|
 |
Use
Photoshop and ImageReady to create layouts of Web pages, aligning items
precisely to one another with guides and a grid.
|
 |
Slice
complex images into sections, and use ImageReady to generate HTML code that
joins the slices together in a table on a Web page, including Java rollovers
and URL links.
|
 | Create
animated GIF images that combine slow transitions and fast motion effects,
while still maintaining small file sizes.
