style or channel, podcasts, time of news, anchors, authors, tweets,
following feeds or anything that you could possibly want!

most of their traffic from the top 10-20% of their indexes, Frompo
performs very specific and to the point, apt searches based on user
needs.

8. Images
The word “Image” is derived from Latin word
“Imago” means representation of a person, animal,
thing, photographs, and painting or otherwise
anything visible. In other words, image is an
artifact which depicts the visual perception of the
original stimulus, in absence of it. It is a two-
dimensional picture that has similar appearance of
subject, thus providing a delineation of it.
Images are of two types two-dimensional or three-
dimensional. Photograph or screen display is an
example of two-dimensional image, whereas
hologram is a three-dimensional image. Images
may be handmade or captured by optical devices,
such as cameras, mirrors, telescopes, microscopes
etc.
9. Images
The word image can also be described in broader sense, by which it can be
classified in many types. These are:
A volatile image: This one remains only for a fraction of time, this may be a reflection on
mirror or a scene displayed on a cathode ray tube.
A mental image: It exists only in mind, something one remembers or imagines;the subject
of an image need not be real; it may be an abstract concept.
A still image: It is a static image, as distinguished from a moving image.
A film still: It is animage taken on the set of a movie or television program during
production and used for promotional purposes.
A digital image: It is a numeric representation (normally binary) of a two-dimensional
image.
Now, if we have to standardize the organization of digital images, we have to use
image file formats. Data in image file format is stored in raster or vector format.
Once an image is rasterized it becomes a grid of pixels and each of them provided
with a number of bits to designate its color and depth. Image file consist of digital
data, which can be rasterized to use on a computer or printer.When an image is
rasterized it becomes a grid of pixels and each of them provided with a number of
bits to designate its color and depth. Vector images, unlike raster images, can be
any dimension independent of file size. File size increases only with the addition
of more vectors. Vector imagesbreak the image into a set of mathematical
descriptions of shapes: curve, arc, rectangle, sphere etc., they are Resolution-
independent: scalable without the problem of “pixelating”.
Lastly, talking about compression, it process of reducing image file size. There are
two types of image file compression techniques:lossless and
lossy.Losslesstechnique reduces file size of image preserving the perfect quality of
uncompressed image.Lossytechnique preserves the representation of original
copy, but it is not a perfect copy, means the original quality will be lost.
