Image Sizing Issue

Tim Burda

I am having some problems with getting an .gif file to display
properly on an ASPX page. The image appears grainy and distorted. I
have tried implementing the image (stored in several formats) using
the img tag as pure HTML and adding the image to an ImageButton
control. In both cases, I have supplied the appropriate width and
height information for the .gif file. In neither case, does the image
seem to appear correctly --- the output seems grainy and blocked.

What is really interesting about this problem is that when I display
the image in the .NET UserControl (.ascx) in the .NET IDE. The image
display correctly and very crisply. If add the control to .aspx page
and display it in a regular browser, the grainy-ness returns.

Anyone ever seen this before.

Thanks -

only when sizing?
How about not resizing in the browser? Just re-create or re-size it in your
paint app, then place it on the page. Dont' use the IMG tag to resize it. If
you resize you run the risk of the image getting ugly.

Background Image Issue in IE6

by: thehuby | last post by:

I have a background image that on all the pages of my site works fine - however on one news item the background image lays over the top of the text (if I select the text it all suddenly appears). This doesn't happen in all IE6's - only some. Does anyone know a fix for this or have any idea what is causing it? http://www.kreetech.com/news/kree_tech_florida_awc_plant_reaches_full_capacity/

Your opinion please: image width and height (in CSS) in em or percent

by: Stephan Bourdon | last post by:

Hi, Your opinion please on the following subject: Is it acceptable to set the width and height of an image in ems or percents in CSS? The advantage for me is that images will scale up or down when the user changes the font size in the browser. But what of the disadvantages? In (X)HTML, the img-element will have a pixel-value for the width and height-attributes.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
