The correct way is "jif" (see this page for evidence) but I've always pronounced it the other way..

G - I - F sometimes...


But usually Gif (t). Personally, I see it as making more sense, despite what it actually is (thanks showing me by the way, þÄ®âÐÖx). I mean...it is Graphics Interchange Format, not Jrafics Interchange Format...right...?
