PNG to GIF Converter Features
Preserves Transparency
Both PNG and GIF formats support transparency. Our converter intelligently maps your PNG's transparent alpha channel directly to the output GIF.
Smart Color Mapping
Because GIFs are strictly limited to 256 colors, our tool uses an optimized color reduction algorithm to maintain the visual fidelity of your original PNG.
Secure In-Memory Processing
Your privacy is fully guaranteed. Your files are processed securely in our server's RAM and streamed directly back to you without ever being saved.
Frequently Asked Questions
Converting is incredibly simple. Just drag and drop your PNG image into the upload box on this page. Our tool will automatically process the image and provide a downloadable static GIF file instantly.
No. Since a standard PNG is a single, static image, converting it to a GIF will result in a static GIF. You cannot create an animation simply by converting a single photo's file format.
You might notice a difference on highly detailed graphics. PNG files can display millions of colors seamlessly, but the GIF format is strictly limited to a palette of 256 colors. Complex gradients or shadowing may look slightly "banded" in the final GIF.
Yes! Both the PNG and GIF formats support transparency. Our converter maps the transparent pixels in your PNG to the transparent alpha channel in your new GIF, ensuring it retains a clear background.
It depends on the image. Because GIFs are limited to 256 colors, flat graphics and simple logos will often become significantly smaller. However, if the PNG is highly detailed, the GIF compression algorithm may result in a larger file.
Yes, it is 100% safe. We prioritize your privacy. Any files you upload are transmitted securely, processed purely in memory, and immediately streamed back to you. They are never saved to our hard drives.
