The JPEG file format, which supports over 16 million colours, is used extensively for photographs and other continuous-tone images on the Web that require full colour display. Note that both of these image formats have built-in compression algorithms that reduce the image file size.

Le format de fichier JPEG, qui prend en charge plus de 16 millions de couleurs, est très employé pour des photographies et autres images avec des dégradés de couleurs qui doivent être affichées dans le Web avec toutes leurs nuances. Notez que ces deux formats comportent un algorithme de compression qui réduit la taille des fichiers.

Instead of using large full-size graphics images on your page, insert a thumbnail in the page and link from the thumbnail version to the larger image. Indicate the full image size(in kilobytes) and the file format, so the user knows the file size and type before loading the full-size image.

... the Mac, through QuickTime, shrinks the video image to a small size(160 X 120 pixels) to reduce the amount of video data required for each frame of video.... QuickTime also provides users with a variety of compressors for specific types of files-still images, video, animation, and so on. These compressors allow you to reduce your QuickTime clips’ file size, which can get enormous(the average uncompressed file size of our 30-second test clip was 16 megabytes). The compressors employ spatial compression to reduce the file size of each individual frame and temporal compression to reduce the amount of data repeated across a group of frames.
