The GIF Pronunciation Page

The GIF Pronunciation Page

"The GIF graphics file format was invented by CompuServe in 1987. In the years since, a debate has been raging as to the correct way to pronounce "GIF": like "jif", or with a hard 'g' as in "gift" as a majority of Mac users seem to prefer. With this page I intend to clear this up once and for all..."

Well, that's clear. But I'll still call them 'ghiffs.' And Jay-pegs. And P.N.G.s Always has been always will be.
