Sounds to me like you need WINGIF.ZIP, the ONLY GIF viewer you'll need for
Windows (for now, anyway).  It will display GIFs and save them back out as
BMPs if you desire without any loss of resolution or color whatsoever.  You
can also do a few other things such as stretching and clipping and mirroring
the image before saving it.  It's what I used to get a nice 1024x768x256
picture of a lighthouse next to a frozen coastline for my background.

Check your local BBS or FTP site for more details.  It's quite nice and it's
also quite shareware.

Ian
