SFW to GIF Conversion: FAQ
What are SFW files?
The SFW format is associated with Seattle Film Works, a company which used to specialize in processing photographic films by mail order. SFW files most likely contain digital versions of images processed by this company. Seattle Film Works gained a lot of popularity in the United States during the 1990s, but was closed in early 2000s. In case you found an SFW file, it probably represents an image that dates from that time, and might be difficult to open using regular image viewers.
What are GIF files?
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) files are widely popular due to their ability to store animations and images in a relatively small size. Their compression algorithm implies the use of a limited color range (up to 256 colors), which means GIF files are great for storing static and animated images of a small size — like logos, icons or avatars, especially if you plan to transfer them or upload them online. GIF images, however, are usually not suitable for high-quality image rendering or printing.
