Color In Graphics

When working in graphic design you start a project by setting the color, usually to CKMYwith a  resolution of 256. Its easy to remember this when you open a document, but to really understand why you need create graphics in this setting is to understand how color works in the computer… I found a website that I thought was very informant and interesting on the topic…http://webstyleguide.com/graphics/displays.html , After reading through the page you can understand how the software such as, Adobe Photoshop as one example, though there are many, works in the color palette, or index into the computer’s color depth and how the screen you’re looking at came to be.
