Simple Vector Designs

What it Vectors?

Vector images are graphic file format is based on a mathematical expression that consists of a point (point), line (line), and form (shape).

Vector images also have a term commonly called the point. That point is any point (nodes) interconnected to create certain shapes. The points can be added, deleted, or moved the line path to create certain shapes as desired.

Vector images will not blur or break when enlarged. Original size will be maintained without any loss of quality at all.

Bitmap What is it?

Bitmap images, also called as a raster image is the type of image files are composed by a grid of pixels or dots of color. The size of bitmap images can be reduced (scaled) without any loss of quality. However, bitmap or raster images will lose quality if its size increases beyond its original dimensions (if enlarged picture will look blurred or broken).

Differences Between Raster Design and Design Vector

Once you know what that design raster and vector design, then the next we discuss the differences between the two. Having previously been discussed on both, then this discussion will be focused on the other what is the difference between the two.

Raster (Bitmap)

The bitmap image composed by objects called pixels. Density of thousands to millions of boxes of color (pixels) that are arranged to form an image is called the resolution (resolution).

The bitmap image is not going broke if its size is reduced, but it will look blurry and rupture if the size is getting enlarged from its original size.

Bitmap images also require a high resolution if you want to print (print). If not, then the image will appear blurry or cracking in the printout. It is also likely to make the size of the bitmap image file will be larger than the size of vector image files.

However, the bitmap image is ideal to use when the image has many shades complicated and also their shadows in the image. The bitmap image will look very smooth to feature a blend of many colors. For example in a photograph, or a digital painting.

In addition, because the computer screen displays images with a resolution in pixel units, then the image that will be displayed is a type of bitmap images. Surely this type of image is most popularly used in the digital world.

vector

Vector images allows the user to maintain the quality of their designs in a variety of formats and resolutions. In vector file, individual points, lines, and shapes were created entirely measurably.

Vector images will not be blurred or broken, either when it is reduced or enlarged, the size and quality will remain well preserved.

In graphic design, vector commonly used to make:

logo

icon

Illustrations

infographic

fonts

Pattern

Element on web pages

Business cards, brochures, posters, etc.

Vector images are very appropriate for the print media (print), because the color quality looks like on a computer screen will remain the same when printed by the printer (paper, books, or other print media).
