Animated GIF

An Animated GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is a type of image file that supports multiple frames, allowing for short, looping animations. Unlike standard images, which display a single picture, GIFs can show a series of pictures in quick succession, creating motion. They are widely used online for memes, social media posts, and digital communication because they are easy to share and can convey emotions or reactions effectively. GIFs are often characterized by their low file size and broad compatibility across different devices and platforms, making them a popular choice for visual expression on the internet.
