Fun Fact
GIFs support per-frame timing, which means animation speed is not fixed. Many classic GIFs you see online run slower or faster than their creator originally intended.
Historical Context
The GIF format was introduced in 1987, long before modern video codecs. Its simple frame-based timing system made it easy to animate images, but also led to inconsistent playback speeds across platforms. Tools like this exist to bring control and precision to a legacy format still widely used today.
