The whole thing is funny when you look at the full phrase too. Graphical Interchange Format – it’s got both a hard g and a soft g. You could call a gif an image. You could also call it a graphic.

There is a G sound and there is a J sound.
There is no need to invent a distinction between “hard” and “soft” G. A “soft G” is just a J.
G can make a hard G sound or a soft G sound, the soft G is identical to J.
It’s still a soft G sound though, because the letter is G.
No, it’s just a G that is making a J sound.
