Internet Tip of the Day:
Have you ever received an email that had a picture attached?
Has it taken you 2 hours to receive the email/picture and
when it finally finished downloading and you tried to view it
your computer protested?
There are many different ways of saving a picture (called
'formats') onto your hard drive. Some of the more popular
formats are jpg, gif, pcx, tif, bmp. If you are planning on
sending a picture via email to somebody, you will need to
take special care to save the image in either a gif or jpg
format.
Why use only gif or jpg formats? There are two reasons.
The first and probably most important is that almost anybody
on the Internet can view these two formats. That is not true
of the others. It would be very easy to send a file in a format
that the person on the other end could not view...and it
happens frequently. By sticking with a gif or jpg, you'll be
assured that the person on the other end can see your
picture.
The second reason to use one of these two formats is size.
Generally, these two formats take less space on your hard
drive, which means it will take less time for you to send the
picture and less time for the person on the other end to
receive the picture.
So, the next time you scan some pictures to send,
remember to save them as either a gif or jpg. Generally you
will use the jpg format for photographs and the gif format for
pictures that have fewer colors, like drawings or comic strips.
You may need to consult the manual for your graphic/image
program to learn how to save images in the different formats.
