Age old question. Is it pronounced "Gif" or "Jif"?

Jraphics is the art of stretching your neck really really far.

How do you pronounce "Gel", "Gist" and "G"?

There is no rule that an acronym should be pronounced the way first letter of the words in the phrase are.

It should not be any more point of debate when the creator himself tells, it is pronounced with soft g not hard.

Pretty sure the creator knows what he created.

This is JIF


This is GIF

I always thought it was obvious and never needed a discussion.

So jiff like in jiffy lube?

Jif is a peanut butter brand. Gif is a file type.
