GIF to PNG — Quick 8‑Section Guide
1) Core idea
Convert a GIF to a PNG in your browser, preserving solid edges and enabling transparency where applicable.
2) Flow
- Upload a GIF.
- Click Convert to PNG.
- Download the PNG.
3) Sanity checks
- Animated GIFs become a single static PNG frame.
- PNG is lossless; file size may increase versus GIF/JPG.
4) Shortcuts
- Need small size? Downscale before converting or prefer WebP for photos.
- For icons/logos, PNG keeps crisp text and edges.
5) Pitfalls
- Expect bigger files for photos compared to JPG/WebP.
- Animated PNG (APNG) isn’t generated by this tool.
6) Micro examples
- Convert a GIF logo to PNG to preserve transparency.
- Create a static PNG thumbnail from an animated GIF.
7) Mini FAQ
- Private? Yes — conversion is local to your browser.
- Transparency? PNG supports alpha; GIF’s single-color transparency becomes real alpha in PNG.
8) Action tip
Choose PNG for graphics and transparency; choose JPG/WebP for smaller photographic images.
