The unisys patent expired long ago. See
http://mindpod.com/jglos...
for details.

GIFs are still popular because they support a simple animation
scheme. That is also why they are declasse.

See http://mindpod.com/jglos...
and http://mindprod.com/gloss/gifen...
for how to use a gifencodrer.

There are parallel encoders for PNG and JPG
