About this tool
The converter maps PNG colors to a GIF palette and produces one still frame at the source dimensions.
GIF supports basic transparency but not PNG's full range of partial alpha values.
The service validates the decoded format and does not cache the conversion response.
Frequently asked questions
Will the GIF be animated?
No. A single still input creates a standards-compliant single-frame GIF. Use a GIF maker when you need multiple animated frames.
Why use a still GIF?
GIF remains useful for compatibility with older templates or systems that explicitly require the format.
Does GIF support full color?
GIF uses a palette of up to 256 colors, so photos can show banding compared with JPG, PNG, or WEBP.
