When i have made something and go to save as a PNG file it asks if i want to save as 'interlaced' or not, what is that please?
Thanks.
 
A quick copy and paste
Choosing Interlaced means that the whole image is displayed from the get-go, starting at low quality and gradually improving as more data is downloaded to the browser, sort of like coming into focus.

Obviously the speed of the host server pushing the data and the bandwidth of the users connection has a direct bearing on the time it takes to render the web page and graphics.
 
no need for nterlaced
 
Yup thare's no need to save interlaced...

When a browser loads an Interlaced GIF file, the file loads at first with less detail, then becomes more and more in focus as more of the file is downloaded. Interlaced files display each part of the file as it is downloaded, and the blurriness of the image decreases as more and more of the file is loaded. On slower networks, this effect creates the illusion of faster image download time when compared to non-interlaced GIFs, which download from top to bottom. Here is an example of an Interlaced GIF file.
