How this image to GIF converter works
Select two or more photos, and each one becomes a frame in an animated GIF. Use the arrow buttons on each thumbnail to set the order, control how long each frame displays, and choose output size and quality. Everything is encoded locally in your browser using a background worker — nothing is uploaded.
When would you use this?
- Before and after comparisons — Upload two images showing a transformation and let them loop as an animated GIF that is easy to share.
- Simple animations — Design a few frames in any image editor, export as PNGs, and stitch them into a looping animation without specialist software.
- Photo slideshows for messaging — Turn a small set of event or travel photos into a single animated GIF instead of multiple attachments.
- Flipbook effects — Set a fast frame delay (80–120ms) to create a flipbook-style animation from sequential images.
- Product showcase — Show a product from multiple angles in one looping GIF for email or social media.
Tips for better results
- For a smooth slideshow, use a delay of 500–1000ms per frame. For a flipbook effect, try 80–150ms.
- For best results, crop all images to the same aspect ratio before uploading. Mixed ratios are centered and padded automatically.
- Lower the output width (320px or 160px) to keep file sizes small for messaging apps.
- GIFs support a maximum of 256 colors per frame — use the High quality setting to minimise color banding in photos.
How does this compare to other tools?
Ezgif and similar tools require you to upload your images to their servers. This tool processes everything locally — useful when your images are private or confidential. There is no file size limit imposed by a server and no queue to wait in.
How many images can I use?
There is no hard limit, but more frames and larger output sizes take longer to encode. A dozen photos at 480px encodes quickly on most devices.
Can every frame have a different speed?
This version applies one delay setting to every frame. If you need per-frame timing, create separate GIFs for different sections and combine them with a general-purpose GIF editor.
Do you store or see my images?
No. Everything happens locally in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded anywhere.
What image formats are supported?
JPG, PNG, and WebP. Transparency in PNG files is replaced with a white background in the output GIF.
