What Image Formats Are Best for T1V Story?

Selecting the optimal image format can help improve page load times and user experience. Here's what to keep in mind when creating your T1V Story:

SVGs are our go-to for logos, icons, and simple graphics. They’re like the superheroes of image formats—always crisp, no matter the size.

Why It Works:
- Scalability: Looks amazing on any screen size.
- Lightweight: Keeps your page fast, which search engines adore.

When your image needs transparency or lossless quality, PNG is here to shine.

Why It’s Great:
- Quality: Maintains clarity with lossless compression.
- Transparency: Perfect for images that need a clean, layered look.
A Little Caution: PNG files can be a bit larger, so keep an eye on file sizes to maintain speed.

For detailed photographs and rich, colorful images, JPG is a tried-and-true choice.

Why It Works:
- Efficient Compression: Great for balancing quality with file size.
- Universal Compatibility: Every browser loves JPG.
Keep in Mind: It doesn’t support transparency, so it’s best for photos rather than graphics.

When you’re preparing images for your interactive walls, think about the content and the message you want to deliver. Here’s a quick guide:

Regardless of which image format you choose, following these best practices will enhance the performance of your interactive walls:

Optimize Image Size:
Compress images to reduce file sizes without compromising quality. Tools like TinyPNG or Squoosh can be very effective.
Use Descriptive Filenames and Alt Text:
Name your files descriptively (e.g., company-logo.svg or event-photo.jpg) for ease of finding it later.
Leverage Lazy Loading:
Implement lazy loading so that images load only when they are needed, reducing initial page load times.
