    <p>Raster images are made up of pixels, with each pixel assigned a color, position, and opacity (when using alpha channels). Raster images have the following advantages over vector images:</p>
    <ul class = "ul">
      <li class = "li">They accurately show subtle changes in lighting, shading, and coloring.</li>
      <li class = "li">You can control the DPI (Dots Per Inch).</li>
    </ul>
    <p>
However, unlike vector graphics images, raster images lose quality when scaled, and you cannot edit the objects that make up the image.

 
This workshop generates high resolution raster images up to 8000x8000 pixels. 
Image resolution describes the amount of image detail. Higher resolution has more detail but produces larger files.</p>
