Yes there are image related viruses.Or a vbs(visual basic scrip) or windows script attached to the image .
Another answer:
The recipient cannot obtain a virus from a GIF file without taking deliberate steps to get it - it cannot happen against their will. See Related Link [1] below for details and an explanation.
Viruses are malicious software (malware) in which their sole purpose is to replicate and infect non-infected computers. Their are many mediums to which a virus can infect a computer, most commonly through the internet and email attachments. When viruses infect a computer, it attaches itself to a "host" file (hence the name virus because it acts like a real world virus). Next, it injects its code into the host file so that whenever that infected file is run, the virus executes first and then the actual file starts. The "payload" is the official term to the effects a computer virus has on a PC.
All your file will be dumped..----------------------------------------------------------- etc.,
Computer viruses can infect a file much like a Biological virus can infect a cell, they then spread from file to file or cell to cell.
A virus is a program that is designed to spread from file to file on a single PC, it does not intentionally try to move to another PC, and it must replicate, and execute itself to be defined as a virus. A worm is designed to copy itself (intentionally move) from PC to PC, via networks, internet etc. A worm doesnt need a host file to move from system to system, whereas a virus does. So worms spread more rapidly then viruses. The word 'Virus' has become a common term a lot of people use to refer to worms and trojans too. Which is not exactly correct.
File Viruses infect applications. These viruses usually infect COM and/or EXE programs, though some can infect any program for which execution or interpretation is requested, such as SYS, OVL, OBJ, PRG, MNU and BAT files. System Sector Viruses infect executable code found in certain system areas on a disk. Macro Virus a program or code segment written in the internal macro language of an application and attached to a document file (such as Word or Excel).
Any image that moves, or has a repeated action would end with '.GIF' or the movement would not be possible.
Change the .gif file to a .mov file
There is only one file that the name ends with GIF. The only file that ends with GIF is saving a picture.
A GIF image can store an animation. That is multiple images are stored into the GIF file and displayed in sequence. It is possible to control the delay between two images and also to make the animation repeat. The multiple images that are stored in the GIF file make out the series of graphics.
A .gif file is a picture. It is not as compressed as a .jpg file so it appears larger than normal.
Yes. You can use them as 2 images in an animated gif. To do it you need an image editor that supports animated gifs.
A .GIF is a file and is saved like any other file.
The extension is actually immaterial. It merely serves to give the operating system a hint as to the file's content, allowing the file to be associated with a particular application, such as a GIF file viewer or an image editor application. In order to save a GIF file, you must first re-encode the image (assuming it is not already in GIF format), and save the output to a file with a GIF extension.
.gif is a file format. Most commonly .gif files are animations or images with a short 5-10 second effect. Non-animation image file formats are: .Jpeg and .PNG.
It is an image file, not video. GIF file format support more pictures in one file to create and view it as short animation, but this not a video.
A GIF file (graphics interchange format) is a simple, low quality image file or animation. Most raster image programs can open and edit GIF images, but GIF animations acn only be edited by programs specifically capable of doing so. GIF files can be viewed by many different programs, usually any program that can display an image file will allow you to see a GIF.
Are you talking about 'gif' not 'giff'? if you are than a gif is an industry standard raster graphic or image format. To make it simpler incase you didn't understand, it is an image that is animated, or could be a picture put into a gif form.
