Transparency is preserved but converted from PNG's alpha channel to GIF's binary transparency
GIF supports only 256 colors - images with many colors may show dithering or banding
Best for logos, icons, and graphics with limited color palettes
Not ideal for photos - use JPG instead unless you need animation or transparency
Can add animation effect during conversion to make static PNG come alive
