Hilary,
Unless I'm mistaken, GIF is limited to 256 colors. By going from 24 bit
accuracy to 8 bit accuracy you could lose a lot (depending on your source, of
course). JPEG is is a lossy compression format, but you can control the amount
of loss (or none at all).
Considering you going from Amiga, if you're going to have to do this more than
once, get a decent commercial program to do it … ImageMaster, ADPro, ImageFX
… they come immediately to mind.
