>GIF is also compressed, but works best for graphics, not photos. I've found GIF photo files just don't look right.
That is because they only support 256 colors. GIF files are great for screenshots.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
