P.S. GIF's look horrible

GIF's are a non-lossy format, so, well, you're wrong. :p It's a format that's best used for images with lots of repeated parts since those compress well with the LZW compression scheme. PNG is a similar format, but can do 24 bit color, as opposed to GIF's 8 bit color. Perhaps that's what you're thinking of?

If you had said JPEG, well, then we could have agreed with you since JPEG is a lossy format (like MP3) and achieves compression by throwing away data and approximating the output.

EDIT: Whoops, darconi beat me to it...

Errrr, 24 bits > 8 bits, thats compresion, 8 bits gif takes 1/3 of the space (removing colors) of a normal 24 bits image...

...uh, I think you're a little confused on how compression works...

Are you sure??, a PNG has 8 bits per channel, 3 channels, RGB + Alpha, a gif only has 8 bits, and sometimes 1 bit for alpha + 7 for colors... 256 colors  vs 16 millons??? Tell why am I wrong, please...
