| If you have a presence on the web, you're using graphics.That simple statement is a measure of just how far the web has come from its early days as a text-only environment. Back then we were dazzled by tiny displays of white text on gray backgrounds. Today, we're ho-hum about anything less than full-color streaming video.Yes, the web has been transformed, seemingly overnight, into a graphics-rich world of visual goodies.
