How can you tell the difference between web pages from an
experienced designer and a novice? Well, for one, you can
look at the way they make use of images. An experienced designer
knows that images can be both a blessing and curse. On the
one hand, images can add richeness and life to a page. On
the other hand, they can seriously impact the amount of time
it takes for a web page to load--especially if your visitors
are accessing your page via modem.
The experienced web designer tries to strike a balance between
an image's positive visual impact and its negative effect
on speed.
This tutorial reviews some basic concepts behind image sizes
on the web. Once you are familiar with these concepts, it
will be much easier for you to strike that balance.
