I generaly make pict files that I then convert into gifs and jpgs with
Graphic Converter. If I take the same picture and then convert it into each
format, the jpg always has a smaller file size than the gif. Which is
better when it comes to file sizes and download time? The jpg almost always
looks better too. Are gifs that much better for specific things?

Happy Holidays!
