Don't use height and width attributes to make a graphic appear smaller on page than its actual size; this just creates a larger download time plus added computer processing time. Resize graphic in your image editing software instead and use it in your page at its true size.

Interlacing Have you noticed web graphics appearing on page gradually in layers? As each layer appears image becomes clearer until it is in full focus. It gives viewer a rough idea of what your image will look like and decide to wait or click onwards while image is rendering. On a fast connection image will load quickly, so you won't notice rendering effect.

Interlaced images increase file size slightly. Only apply it to large GIFs where file size is less noticeable.

Use of Alternate Text Some people surf Web with graphics turned off (for faster web page loading), or they are disabled (visually impaired people use text-based Web). A good Web Designer will accommodate these situations by adding ALT attribute to HTML element. The ALT element allows you to put text in place of image so readers have an idea of what image is without having to view it.

The ALT attribute will show up if your image is broken. It can also be inserted as one of your keywords, for search engine optimization.
