About GIF Format
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) supports animation and transparency with a palette of up to 256 colors. Widely used for short animations, memes, and simple graphics on the web. Limited color depth makes it unsuitable for photographs.
About FLV Format
FLV (Flash Video) was the dominant web video format during the Flash era. While largely replaced by MP4 and WebM for web delivery, FLV files are still encountered in legacy content and some streaming servers.
