Hi,
The GIF enabled versions are not officially available anymore
for reasons stated on GD's website http://www.boutell.com/gd .
And even if you were able to get hold of a copy, compiling it against
the latest PHP is not that easy and may become harder in time.
Therefore it would be recommended to avoid problems in the future and
use PNG instead, however, if you want to use transparency in your images
bear in mind that a number of implementations do not support this.
For example the quicktime plugin that handles PNGs in Netscape 4.x .
Unfortunately this makes it impossible to use GD for certain purposes,
I had this problem when I was trying to migrate websites from PHP 3
to the latest PHP 4 and was unable to compile the older GD lib against
PHP versions 4.05pl1 .
Also check this effort to compile later versions of GD with GIF *and* PNG
