How to use the image to GIF maker

Four steps, all in your browser.

  1. 1

    Add your pictures

    Click the picker or drop JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or BMP files onto the page. Add more later, or remove one with a click.

  2. 2

    Put them in order

    Use the arrows on each picture to move it earlier or later. The GIF plays the pictures in that order.

  3. 3

    Set time, shape and width

    Choose how long each image shows, from 0.05 to 3 seconds. Pick First image, 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or 9:16, then a width from 320 to 1080 px.

  4. 4

    Choose Fit or Fill, then download

    Fit keeps the whole picture on a White, Black or Transparent background. Fill crops the edges instead. Make the GIF, check the size shown, and download it.

Image to GIF tips for a cleaner result

  • Start with images in the same orientation, because mixed tall and wide pictures are padded or cropped to one shape.
  • Pick Fit when nothing may be cut off, and Fill when you want the frame fully covered with no bars.
  • Try about 0.1 seconds per image for a flip-book feel and 1 to 3 seconds for a slideshow.
  • Choose a smaller width for smaller files: in our test, four 3000 by 4000 JPGs gave 622 KB at 480 px and 2.42 MB at 1080 px.
  • Remove near-duplicate shots before you make the GIF, since every image adds a frame.
  • Flat graphics and screenshots look cleaner than busy photos, because a GIF holds 256 colors per frame.
  • Use Transparent with Fit for stickers and logos, so the space around each picture stays see-through.

What you can make with image to GIF

Any set of stills that reads better as one looping file.

  • Photo slideshows

    Trip, party or product photos that rotate in a loop, with a few seconds on each.

  • Flip-book animation

    Drawings or edited stills with a tiny time per image, so they read as motion.

  • Step-by-step screenshots

    Show a setup or an app flow in one small file instead of a row of separate screenshots that readers have to scroll past.

  • Stickers and logo variants

    Cycle PNG artwork on a transparent background to preview each version.

  • Chat reactions

    Turn a few expressive photos into a reply you can save as a file and drop into a conversation.

  • Before and after

    Swap two shots back and forth to show a repair, a layout change or progress.

What happens to your pictures

Nothing is uploaded

This image to GIF tool reads your pictures and builds the GIF in your browser, on your device. They are never sent to our server.

No watermark, no sign-up

The GIF is a plain file you download. There is no account, no watermark and no cap on how many GIFs you make, and the result shows its size, frame count and length before you save it.

What it does not do

It plays your images one after another, with no transitions, captions or sound. A GIF file you add contributes only its first frame, and a GIF holds 256 colors per frame.

Frequently asked questions

No. The file is processed by your browser on your device and is never sent to our server.

Yes. There is no watermark, no sign-up and no limit on how many GIFs you make. You pay nothing and need no account to download the file.

Add up to 100 still images in JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or BMP format. A GIF input contributes only its first frame. HEIC is not on the list, so save those photos as JPG first.

Not here. This image to GIF tool plays several images in order. To animate one photo with AI motion, use the Image to GIF AI page, which uploads your photo to an AI model.

Every picture is fitted to the shape you choose. Fit keeps the whole picture and fills the gaps with White, Black or Transparent. Fill covers the frame and crops the edges.

Pick a width of 320, 480, 640, 800 or 1080 px. For the shape, choose First image (it follows your first picture), 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or 9:16. The result page shows the final size in pixels before you download.

Set it from 0.05 to 3 seconds. Short times make a quick flip-book effect, and 1 to 3 seconds suits a slideshow.

There is a Loop option. Turn it on and the GIF repeats; turn it off and it plays through once.

Yes. Choose Fit and set the background to Transparent, and the space around each picture is left see-through. We checked it with a transparent-background test.

Every image is a full frame, so more pictures and a wider width mean a bigger file. Lower the width, remove extra images, or run the result through the GIF compressor.
