Description:... Designing Web Site Images is an instructional guide to web object design. It covers the creation and handling of graphics for the World Wide Web, including image management strategies, compression, palettes, graphic creation and manipulation, conversion, working with display text, simple animations, and PhotoShop's "onionskinning" techniques for animation. This book uses a practical, straight-forward approach to give users step-by-step instruction, without the need of a classroom. PhotoShop is the software tool of choice, but other downloadable freeware and shareware programs are used. This book establishes a balance between artistic quality and compression for creating web sites that not only look great but function well on the Internet.
