Image Basics
How do images work on digital devices and platforms?
+
What are bitmap graphics?
"  Bitmap graphics, sometimes
called raster graphics,
represent an image as a grid
of colored dots. Each dot in
the grid is referred to as a
pixel.
"  On your computer screen,
each dot is represented by a
tiny liquid crystal or LED light.
On a printout, a pixel is
represented by a drop of ink.
"  Because bitmap graphics
produce photograph-like
images, they are used for
photos, for images added to
web pages, and for art
converted from paper to
computer format.
"  NOTE: Bitmap graphics are different
than vector graphics, which consist
of a set of points, lines, arcs, and
other geometrical shapes. Each
shape is defined as a series of line
segments called vectors, and
attributes such as line width and fill
color.

+
How is image quality determined?
"  Image resolution is
expressed as the width and
height of the grid that holds
the dots.
"  For example, an image with
1024 X 768 resolution is
formed from a grid 1,024 dots
wide and 768 dots high.
"  High-resolution images
exhibit details more clearly
than low-resolution images.
"  Each dot in an image is
assigned a code number for
its color. The number of bits
required to store the color
number is referred to as color
depth and determines the
number of colors that the
image contains.
"  An 8-bit color depth produces
256 colors. A 24-bit color
depth produces 16.7 million
colors, sometimes referred to
as true color. The more
colors an image contains, the
more realistic it appears.
The quality of an image depends on its resolution and color depth.

+
How do I choose a bitmap format?
Bitmap graphics are most commonly stored in JPEG, TIF, BMP, PNG,
GIF, and RAW files (commonly called formats). Images for social
media sites should be stored in a format supported by browsers.

How do I upload
photos to social
media?
1. Phone > Social media app
— Photos will resize for you.
2. Phone > Computer > Social media
3. Camera > Computer > Social media
— These methods let you more heavily
manipulate images before posting.
