Format Details
FLI
FLI is an early animation format created by Autodesk for their Animator software in the late 1980s. It stores frame-by-frame animation data using delta compression, recording only the pixels that change between frames to reduce file size. FLI was popular for creating simple animations on DOS-based systems but is rarely used in modern workflows.
GIF
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is one of the most recognized image formats on the internet, developed by CompuServe in 1987. It supports up to 256 colors per frame and lossless LZW compression, and is famous for its animation capability, making it ideal for simple looping clips and reaction images. GIF remains enormously popular for sharing short animations and memes across social media and messaging platforms.
