A secret image transmission technique has been put forward in this paper using (3,3) visual cryptographic shares generated from secret image that are fabricated into frames in Graphics Interchange Format (GIFs) to prevent any intruder from knowing the secret contained in the GIFs. The (3, 3) Visual Cryptography technique creates shares from a binary secret image. Using GIFs as communication hosts, each share has been embedded into the Least Significant Bit (LSB) of the pixels of any single meaningful frame of GIFs. The shares obtained from the corresponding meaningful frames of the GIFs, during decoding, are combined to create the authenticated image. The combination of visual cryptography (VC) technique and steganographic principles ensures not only the secure distribution of shares but also adds an extra layer of protection through the integration of the GIF format.
