GIF Image Format GIF Converter
GIF stands for Graphical Interchange Format. Although traditionally still images, GIFs can also include short bursts of soundless animation. They will open in almost all image programs and on almost all devices. GIFs are raster images made up of pixels and containing up to 256 colours. To make GIFs easier to share, the image or animation is compressed with lossless compression, creating a smaller file size without noticeably affecting image quality. GIFs are often used on websites for animated objects and navigation buttons, and on social media to share video clips and animated images.
GIFs were developed in 1987. They were mostly replaced by JPG and PNG until they were integrated into messaging and social media apps and started being used for memes. Billions of animated GIFs are now sent between users or posted online every day. GIFs are big business and they’re widely used by advertisers and marketeers. Many film and TV companies produce and publish their own GIFs as part of their viral marketing strategies.

AVIF Image Format AVIF Converter
AVIF files are a relatively new format used for digital images, first introduced in 2019. The name is short for ‘AV1 Image File Format’. It’s an open file-type that’s not owned by any one tech company. AVIF files are designed to improve on formats like JPG, PNG and GIF, in part because they can offer better image quality but with much smaller file sizes. Because it’s such a new format, you may not be able to open AVIF files in all image editors and viewers. However, support is increasing, and AVIF files can now be opened by some web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari. Apple, Android, and Linux devices with the most recent operating systems can also open AVIF files in their Photos apps. If you want to edit your AVIF files, the latest versions of Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop with the AVIF plug-in, Microsoft Paint, and GIMP are applications you could use.
