Thanks for the info. I am bummed. I'm not the creator of the clipart originals, just processing the originals for putting online. Was trying to get away from Photoshop, looks like I won't be able to. Somehow Photoshop lets me remove backgrounds and save as GIF's without severe degradation. Not sure how they do it, but it is a feature I have become reliant on. Too bad, I am really liking Affinity Photo, but I have a workflow I do 4 times per year for several dozen graphics for the past 15+ years. I'm either going to get an old version to work on my Mac or suck it up and pay them a monthly fee. :(

I have a TIF file that I export to a resized color gif image and the quality gets drastically reduced no matter what settings I tinker with. I am first removing the white background from the TIF image (for viewing online with various backgrounds). If I leave the white background, the export as GIF works as expected. I tried exporting as PNG to compare and it looks great, but I need gif. Exporting it as GIF makes the image deteriorate to the point it cannot be used. I have attached the original, the exported GIF, and an exported PNG. To clarify, I am wanting a decent quality color GIF image when I export. I have tried this on both PC and Mac desktop versions (most current updates). Any idea on how to make this function properly? KC01WIN18C.TIF
