Directory of Graphics Resources

Home > Computers > Software > Graphics

This category is intended for the graphic software programs and utilities associated with the creation and manipulation of digital graphics.

Two techniques are used for creating and maintaining pictures in a computer. The first method called "vector graphics," which maintains the image as a series of points, lines, arcs and other geometric shapes.

The second method called "bitmapped graphics" and also known as "raster graphics," they resemble a television, where the picture image is made up of dots. Understanding these two techniques and how they interweave is crucial.

Thank you.
