Images can make any presentation more memorable and eye-catching. But sometimes you might need to blur them – entirely or partially – for a number of reasons. Blurring is great because it’s effective, yet subtle and unobtrusive. You can blur an entire image and use it as a background of a slide, while the textual contents will still be perfectly readable. If you need to highlight something in an image, there’s no better way to do so than by keeping the most important part sharp and in focus while blurring everything around it.

The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format was developed to replace the outdated GIF format in the late 1990s. The main goal of its developers was to create a format that provides lossless compression, supports transparency and produces images with a wider range of colors than GIF.

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is a file format that can display animation; although, unlike videos, it doesn’t have any sound. It’s a raster format which allows multiple images to be combined in one file. Plus, there’s some information about how long each image should be displayed for. Animated GIFs work similarly to a flipbook – they contain a series of related images. When their sequence is played, they create an effect of a video. Except there’s no sound, and they tend to be of a quite low resolution.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a raster file format, which utilizes compression to store data. It was developed by a group of photography experts, hence its name. JPG is one of the most common and widely used formats for storing and sharing photos and other kinds of images. This format is all over the place in digital photography, web graphics, social media and print media, and for all image editing and manipulation.
