I never really thought about the differences except for transparency, but these formats are actually quite different
-
Hey Unmesh...Thanks so much for the mention...very kind of you 👍
-
png: flat art, vectors, transparency jpeg: real photos, exif data, compression
-
If your working with icons/logos etc you're most likely using vector tools (illustrator and what not), in which case PNG isn't even the right move. Assuming the target platform supports it, formats like SVG would be better. That said if it doesn't then yes PNG is a great choice, and you might even get away with 8-bit colors if you don't have gradients.
-
I've been using PNG's for my art for years. It was initially because of the alpha channel, but its other advantages have revealed themselves over those years.
-
Never stop doing what you do. I can’t tell you how helpful your channel has been in answering questions like this.
-
Job well done! I’ve been doing digital illustration forever and never realized the difference when it comes to 8 vs 16 bit and all that goes with that! Thank you!
-
you explain and demonstrate everything exhaustively and efficiently. you are extremely respectful of your viewers time and well spoken, you would make a great professor in a digital media class!
-
I am a veteran graphic designer and have watched or read many various tutorials and I must say that you and your YouTube channel are simply the best. I thank you and compliment you on how gifted you are as a teacher and tutor for us all. Excellent!
-
Even since 2012 or 2013, I knew and found out that PNGs hold TONS of more quality than JPEGs. That's why I ALWAYS export my art into PNGs.
-
In a nutshell, from what I learned. JPEG: Really good for IRL photos, NO TRANSPARENCY, NO 16-Bit Channel for Banding PNG: Really good for Digital arts, YES TRANSPARENCY, YES 16 Bit Channel for Banding Thanks for your lesson!
-
Wow thats the first video i watched from your channel. I love your quality, not only the studio (video) but especially the voice with that amazing flow. Plus the great information all in all a great experience to watch.
-
I always used "save as" to finish my photoshop jobs. I also thought that png was only for backgroundless images and you just taught me a lot. Even though I have to use subtitling to understand since I don't speak English 😞
-
Really interesting! I don't know much about photoshop and was wondering why sometimes there was banding now everything is clear. Good explanation.
-
Because I'm self-taught, I've been struggling with my Photoshop skills for a few years now. I know enough to do what I need and usually just look up anything unusual I need to do for my pictures. This video appeared in my suggestions and quickly answered a bunch of questions I've always wondered about! Thanks for posting and making it all very easy to understand. I'm definitely planning to check out some more from your channel!
-
Extremely informative! I've been in graphic design at a sign company in the US for 7 years, and I wish every single person I work with outside of the graphics department could have a basic understanding of this and related subjects. You did mention that print and digital applications are very different, but often we will receive files that aren't even close to being usable for either and are expected to just "make it work." I'm not bitter.
-
I never know the main different between PNG and JPEG until I watch this Videos. It really helpful for me. I love how you describe both PNG or JPEG and talk about the different simply and very easy to undestand. And not only this video, all your contents are very helpful anyway. Hope you always make this kind of photoshop tutorial, etc.
-
Fantastic video! I've been posting PNG files to social media for years now and always get compliments on how well they hold up. :)
-
I loved the way you just started the video without advertising, intro or what else. keep the good work, you gained my attention.
-
Always incredible stuff. Extreme gratitude for all the work and passion you share <3
