Surviving high definition Web design & illustrations
02 Nov 2015

“Nothing in this world that’s worth having comes easy.”

With technology pacing with the momentum of light, certain tech features that were pretty much rare in the old days have become the utmost fashion and soon will become a general expectation rather than something surreal. Recently, Apple's gadgets are provided with retina displays which usually offer twice the former ppi, hence exceeding the expectations and creating a benchmark for others in order to at least stand in comparison.

 

HD future

This article is completely about adapting and welcoming to the HD future which is standing right ahead of us.

You must be aware of what actually high definition is. Anything which comprises of greater than 200 pixels is called high definition image or high resolution image. And if this image is compared to the standard image, the first former images with which the internet began comprise of only 72 pixels. So far, among smartphones the most pixels per inch are introduced by Samsung in their Galaxy S6, around 577 pixels per inch taking the lead. Whereas Apple’s latest iPhone 6+is way behind displaying 401 pixels per inch while the retina technology introduced by Apple constitute around 220 pixels per inch.

 

Hype in HD resolution

People seem to be more and more conscious of high resolution technology hence they need images to be more refined.  Resultantly, the companies seem to hire more intelligent designers are producing images and backgrounds having lofty pixels for illustrations.

 

Issues for HD designers

Though the doors have been flushed opened for HD resolution but still some room for issues can be seen. Images and backgrounds associated with higher pixels will definitely require lofty data which will eventually be time consuming. But designers are agitated to minimize the data in order to load the content available on the internet rapidly and quickly.

Another issue that seems to scribble through our eyes is that those websites and systems which have adapted to HD resolution schemes seems to display the standard images 72 pixels per inch quite weirdly as these images go completely flat over HD resolution displays. Hence, with time more systems will adapt to higher resolution schemes and thereby will culminate the standard of 72 ppi.

 

Conclusions

It is better to acknowledge this fact as early as possible that HD is the ultimate future of technology and the sooner you dive in the pool of HD information, the more you are firm on this ground. The issue of loading time will however eradicate as with time definitely other alternate options will be deduced.
