Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert GIF to PNG?

PNG offers significant advantages over GIF: full 16.7 million color support (vs. 256), smooth alpha transparency (vs. 1-bit), and better lossless compression. PNG is the superior format for static images in virtually every case.

What happens with animated GIFs?

This converter extracts only the first frame of an animated GIF and converts it to a static PNG image. Animation and other frames will be lost. For animated output, consider animated WebP or APNG formats instead.

Will the PNG file be larger than the GIF?

For simple graphics with few colors, PNG may be similar or slightly larger. For complex images, PNG's more efficient compression often produces smaller files than GIF despite supporting far more colors.

Does the conversion improve GIF transparency?

The conversion preserves existing transparency from the GIF. While PNG supports smooth alpha transparency, GIF's 1-bit transparency is simply carried over — semi-transparent areas cannot be created from a GIF that didn't have them.

Are my images safe and private?

Absolutely! All GIF to PNG conversion happens locally in your web browser. Your images never upload to any server. Once you close the page, all data is permanently deleted.
