The computers with Windows have a level of customization that few systems have achieved since this allows you to do multiple things such as putting the various system sounds, colors of all kinds for the interface and place any type of wallpaper images.
The latter is a special feature since you can place not only static images but also moving images and the process is not as difficult as you might think and we are here to help you. We will show you what steps you must take to put moving images or GIFs on your computer.
What are GIFs?
The GIF or Graphics interchanger Format is a type of multimedia file that is quite widespread and popular on the internet and consists of a sequence of images without sound that can be animated or made from photos, perfect for transmitting visual information.
This type of file was created in 1987 by CompuServe as a substitute for RLE which was a similar file type, but in black and white and since then it has been widely used by many people on the internet.
One of the things that made them popular faster is thanks to the fact that it has an algorithm that allows you to compress the file so that it weighs very little, making it very easy to share and download.
GIFs are widely used files, so they can be created with various programs such as Adobe Premiere or Google Photos. Both are very easy to use programs and can be downloaded on various operating systems.
