Graphics: Understanding Image Characteristics and Creating Image Maps, Slides of Computer Programming

An overview of various aspects of graphics, including image characteristics such as size, color, compression, interlacing, and creating image maps. Image maps allow users to create links to other web pages using images, with different links visited depending on where in the image the user clicks.

Working Graphics

Lecture Overview

 Formatting Text

 Understanding whitespace

Graphics (Characteristics 1)

 Images have various characteristics that

affect performance

Size (number of pixels) – Large images can be several megabytes  Color (bits per pixel) – The more colors, the larger the image  Compression – Algorithms exist to compress images without any loss of fidelity

Graphics (Characteristics 2)

 Interlacing – loads and renders alternating

lines to improve perceived performance

Image Maps (Creating)

 Use the element

 The **** element contains the name of the image file  The usemap attribute contains a bookmark  The **** element contains multiple **** elements  **** elements define the shape and the link visited when the area is clicked

Image Maps (Best Practices)

 They are a pain to create by hand

 You really need a tool to create these easily
