GIF

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)

  • Uses a palette of 256 colours
  • Handles solid colours well
  • Handles sharp edged line art well
  • Doesn’t handle gradients well (can be handled with dithering and blur)
  • GIF allows interchange of images / frames to support animation
  • Handles transparency on block objects
  • Uses matting for edges of graphic & transparency
