An animated gif is an image that's been encoded using the graphics interchange format where it has multiple frames encoded into a single image file and a web browser or other software will play those images back in animated sequence automatically. ... An animated GIF is a digital version of that.GIF means "Graphics Interchange Format (image type)".

The team of programmers at CompuServe led by Steve Wilhite, the well-known father of the file format, built the GIF around something completely separate from the animation party-trick it's known for today
