Well if it was originally a GIF (<=256 colors), and it was converted to a PNG... you can convert it back from PNG -> GIF with zero loss.

GIF/PNG use lossless algorithms (unlike JPG, which uses lossy).

PNG is just more advanced (more advanced compression algorithms, it can do everything GIF can do (besides animation, which doesn't work in EPUB), and can handle images with WAY more than 256 colors).
