  GIF is a lossless format.

  Granted, it only supports 256 colors, but that doesn't make it a lossy
image format. That makes it only an image format which supports 256 colors.
You can't control the quality of the "lossiness" because there isn't any.
Anything you store in the gif file can be retrieved exactly. Its color
limitation is not a method to pack the image smaller, it's just a limitation.
