Morphology

gifset = gif + set (transparent) = gif + set

The word is a straightforward compound of 'gif' (an image file) + 'set' (a collection), so the meaning is directly inferable.

Etymology

Gifset starts with GIF, the name for a short moving picture that plays again and again, and adds set meaning 'group', so it feels like a small album of GIFs. That's why a gifset is a collection of related GIF images shown together to show a sequence, moment, or theme.
