First sorry about my poor english.

I don't understand what's happend with .gif format.
When i tried to use that format, y get this error message:
Warning: ImageGif: No GIF support in this PHP 

I know what's meaning this message, but my question is ...
What is the reason to not support .Gif files and recognize .Png and other extensions.

Thank you very much.
I.Sal?s

The GD library does not suport GIF due to licence issues with UniSys. THey patented the LZW algorithm used in GIF files.
So, nothing that can be done on the pHP side. (And you might find a hacked version of the GD library at http://www.rhyme.com.au/gd/
