DuotoneDuotones are images that only display in two colors. Like most visual
techniques on the Web, duotones come from the world of print. In print, the
more colors you use, the slower the production time and the higher the
cost, so duotones were often an economical alternative. Duotones can also
improve efficiency on the Web by enabling the creation of cool-looking
images with small file sizes. Duotones are made by first creating a grayscale image and then overlaying
it with a different specified color. Many of the head shot pictures of
Webmonkey writers are duotone images, for example.
