The Animated GIF Format

The GIF format, or the “Graphics Interchange Format” is a type of bitmap image format that was created in the year 1997 by CompuServe. Its use is for simple graphics, logos, and animations owing to its lossless compression technology and 256 color support.

It enables short animations by allowing users to save numerous animated loop frames, which enables sequences to play automatically without the need for additional software or plugins. This has enabled global users to adapt it in webpages, chat services, and numerous other software.

GIF: Capabilities and Limitations

Every GIF file comes with a “.gif” file label and are able to be viewed through most applications. Almost every pictographic software and web browser is capable of opening GIF files.

Partial transparency cannot be supported, so while low-depth GIF images do have a transparent background, their lack of color variety makes them ineffective for detailed photos. Though small files work wonders for posting movements and adding emphasis, fools cannot be relied on for portraying detail, and logos need accuracy. This explains its usage in user interfaces as well as in animations and pictographic software systems.

JPG: Digital Imagery Explained

JPG, shortened from Joint Photographic Experts Group, is the name ascribed to the new standard for digital imagery launched in 1986 by the International Organization for Standardization. Created to enable photo-quality graphics to be displayed on computer screens, this trail-blazing method allowed lossy compression to be manifested for the first time.

This process eliminates the factors of pictures that are indiscernible to the human eye while significantly decreasing the size of the depiction's file. Miniaturizing these items at a ratio of up to 100:1, the impact upon the use of available storage space is ground-breaking in its efficiency.

JPG's Widespread Popularity

Since its inception, the JPG format has become one of the most popular ways to use imagery on the internet. As JPG files feature almost universal accessibility, they are easily transferred from one website, device, or electronic to another seamlessly. This attribute is further buoyed by the generally intact quality that JPG images tend to retain over their intended usage.
