Graphics Used on Vimeo.com
After careful analysis of many images on vimeo.com, it is evident that all of the photos and icons used on the website are .GIF images. From the delete, share and upload icons, to the individual user's icon, all are .GIF photo files. The reason for this is because:
- GIF is the most widely supported graphics format on the Web
- GIFs of diagrammatic images look better than JPEGs
- GIF supports transparency and interlacing
- The GIF compression is best at compressing images with large fields of homogeneous color. (GIF files)
The majority of the icons on vimeo.com are strictly homogeneous in color assortment.
