Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert PNG to GIF?
GIF is useful for maximum compatibility across all platforms, email clients, and older systems. It also produces very small files for simple graphics with limited colors, making it ideal for thumbnails and icons.
Will I lose transparency when converting PNG to GIF?
GIF supports 1-bit transparency (fully transparent or fully opaque), while PNG supports full alpha channel transparency (semi-transparency). Semi-transparent areas in your PNG will be converted to fully opaque or fully transparent pixels.
Why does my PNG look different as a GIF?
GIF only supports 256 colors, while PNG supports millions. Complex PNG images may appear dithered or posterized when converted to GIF. The conversion works best for simple graphics with limited color palettes.
When should I use GIF instead of PNG?
Use GIF when you need universal compatibility (especially in email), for simple graphics with fewer than 256 colors, or for animated images. For most modern web use with transparency, PNG or WebP are better choices.
Are my images safe and private?
Absolutely! All PNG to GIF conversion happens locally in your web browser. Your images never upload to any server. Once you close the page, all data is permanently deleted.

Expert Tips for PNG to GIF Conversion

  • GIF works best for PNG images with fewer than 256 distinct colors and simple graphics
  • Be aware that PNG alpha transparency will be reduced to 1-bit transparency in GIF format
  • Use GIF for email-compatible images since many email clients block or poorly render PNG
  • Avoid converting complex photographs from PNG to GIF as the 256-color limit causes visible quality loss
  • For modern web use with transparency, consider WebP instead of GIF for better compression
