What is JPG & GIF?
When you look at any file, you will notice it has 3 letters on the end. These 3 letters say what type of file it is. Very much like domain names do. If you see MYFILE.TXT you know by looking at the last 3 letters this is a TEXT file, which means It can read this in notepad. Well JPG, GIF, BMP, PNG and more are picture files. Your next question will be why so many different ones? Well each one is made a little bit different. Some are better in cad programs and others for artists. If you want your logo or photo to load fast when a user visits your listing on 411Law you will want to use either JPG or GIF. JPGs Jpgs do not limit colors, making this format the preferred for photographs. Always save your original image in a format other than jpg so you can go back and make changes later. If you save a jpg as a jpg after altering it, you are compressing the image again, causing lots of icky (that’s a technical term 🙂 things to happen. Your jpgs can be highly compressed for really small files
