For some reason Photoshop is adding a weird white stroke (which I'm not to fond of) to my finished work after I save it. However this only happens when I save it as a .gif, otherwise the image is completely transparent and how I want it.

Example:

Gif: imgur.com/GsI6myL
Not Gif: imgur.com/Y5iiwNN

Gif is supports binary transparency, ie transparent or not. Where there is a transition, it needs to apply a matte color to fake alpha channel transparency. The default matte color is white. Set it to whatever your background color is and you won't notice it.

PNG supports true transparent pixels, ie alpha channel transparency. It renders well, but comes with the cost of no animation support. That's where gif still reigns supreme.
