In depth
A closer look at HVS ColorGIF 2.17
HVS Color is a Filter plugin for Adobe Photoshop 3.0/4.0/5.0 and compatible hosts and Equilibrium Debabelizer that allows you to convert 24-bit images to 8 bits with no visible loss in quality. Winner of New Media magazine's 1997 Hyper Award (Best Graphics Utility), it uses a patented psychovisual algorithm that models the way the human visual system perceives and masks colors. The results are truly startling -- now you can have realistic photographic images as GIF files. All the advantages of 24-bit at less than a third the size! And because HVS Color achieves its effect without dithering, your GIF files will compress up to 70% better, meaning less download time for your web pages.
