New iPad offers a lot more problems for internet developers
The iPad three, it has been declared, will possess a retina screen making for far more sharper and high quality pictures than before. The one issue for internet designers is the fact that this may result in a clamor for top resolution, top quality pictures on web sites focusing on the mobile device, tablet and smart phone marketplaces. A website builder, utilizing HTML5 and not Mobile Flash, might be a great answer but there are lots of other elements to think about for internet designers.
To begin with, top graphic resolutions will undoubtedly mean higher loading periods. Bearing in mind 4G networks aren't quite in position yet, this indicates that 3G networks might, for the time being at least, need to deal with web sites utilizing pictures and web sites with greater resolution and pixels than ever before as internet designers attempt to enhance the display of their web site to suit the iPad’s brand new retina display. Internet strategist Brad Frost explained to Net Magazine:
“The user on the bus can be on slow Wi-Fi or 3G and might just need to get the damn assets downloaded. They shouldn't be punished with downloading a massive Retina-ready image. We need a way to properly address this."
This really is the major predicament for internet designers, or perhaps individuals employing a HTML5 website builder: is web presentation or loading times more essential? For certain, there will probably be numerous internet designers in the subsequent couple of months or so attempting to correct the large problems this may trigger.
From my perspective, although web presentation is extremely essential, and would particularly be a goal for iPad three users having a retina display screen, there's no reason getting a mobile device friendly web site if no one can gain access to it because of the slow downloading speeds brought on by the high res images.
Talk continues to be about optimizing Scalable Vector Graphics to assist with this predicament, and hopefully internet designers, and those utilizing a website builder, won't have to be concerned too much in the future about how quick their internet website loads, and may look much more towards optimizing their website for the very best web presentation feasible on retina displays.
