PNG vs JPG: Which Format Is Better for GIF Frames?
PNG · preserve the details
PNG stores image data without lossy compression. It is useful for sharp edges, text and images you plan to edit; files can be larger. PNG supports transparency and lossless image compression.
JPG · keep files smaller
JPG uses lossy compression and often makes photographic images smaller. High compression can introduce artifacts, especially around text and edges. JPG uses lossy compression and has no transparency. Choose a background color for transparent areas.
A GIF stores frames and timing information. Extracted stills do not animate. Some frames update only part of the canvas; complete exports require compositing and disposal rules, not simply saving each raw frame.
