Tools
Creating images
for the Web has introduced a whole new set of requirements for graphics
software. There are many worthy tools dedicated to creating terrific
web images. Some are geared to specific tasks (creating image maps and
GIF animations, reducing file size), and others present (near) complete
packages
for
use by
the most demanding web designer. These tools vary
greatly in price and complexity. Here are a few of the less expensive,
yet muti-featured, graphic tools and image editors.
