GIF Maker: Turn Your Images into an Animated GIF
This GIF maker lets you build an animated GIF from your own images right in the browser — upload PNG, JPG, WebP, or BMP frames, set the order and timing, then generate a looping GIF in seconds. No software to install and no account to create.
It is made for anyone who wants a quick way to turn a series of pictures into motion: a short animation from a photo burst, a product showcase for social media, a step-by-step visual tutorial, a reaction clip, or a sprite-sheet preview. You stay in control of frame order, per-frame speed, output size, quality, and loop count.
How to Make a GIF from Images
Upload your images
Drag and drop pictures onto the upload area, or click to browse and pick files. PNG, JPG, WebP, and BMP are supported, and you can add up to 50 frames. Use Add More any time to bring in extra images without losing what you already have.
Arrange the frames
Your images appear as thumbnails in the frame strip. Drag a thumbnail to reorder it, or remove a frame with its Remove button. The active frame is highlighted so you always know where you are in the sequence.
Set timing and output
Type a Delay (from 20 ms to 10,000 ms) and click Apply All to time every frame at once. Then choose the output Size, a Quality value (1–30), the Loop count, and toggle Dither for smoother gradients.
Preview, create, and download
Use play, pause, and step controls to check the animation. When it looks right, click Create GIF — a progress bar tracks the rendering. Once it finishes, the output size is shown and Download saves the GIF to your device.
Features
Multi-Image Upload
Add up to 50 frames by drag and drop or the file picker, in PNG, JPG, WebP, or BMP — and bring in more at any time.
Drag-and-Drop Reordering
Rearrange the animation by dragging thumbnails in the frame strip, and remove any frame with a single click.
Per-Frame Delay
Set each frame's display time from 20 ms to 10,000 ms, or use the global delay with Apply All for uniform timing.
Live Preview
Play, pause, and step through frames before encoding, with a frame indicator showing your position in the sequence.
Custom Output Size
Set the GIF's width and height in pixels, auto-detected from your first image and adjustable up to 2000 px.
Adjustable Quality
Slide quality from 1 (best color accuracy) to 30 (fastest render) to balance detail against file size and speed.
Loop Control
Choose an infinite loop or a fixed repeat of 1×, 2×, 3×, or 5× before the animation stops.
Floyd-Steinberg Dithering
Enable dithering to simulate more colors within the GIF's 256-color limit, ideal for gradients and photos.
Worker-Based Rendering
Encoding runs on web workers so the page stays responsive, with a real-time progress bar and final file size.
Fully In-Browser
All processing happens on your machine — no uploads, no tracking, and instant download when the GIF is ready.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make a GIF from images?
Upload your pictures, drag the thumbnails into the order you want, set a frame delay, then click Create GIF. After rendering finishes you can preview the result and download it. There is nothing to install and no sign-up.
How many images can I use, and how many do I need?
You need at least 2 images to animate, and you can add up to 50 frames per GIF. The 50-frame cap keeps browser rendering smooth even on large images.
Which image formats can I upload?
PNG, JPG, WebP, and BMP are all supported, so you can mix common web image formats in a single GIF.
Can I set the frame speed and loop count?
Yes. Set a Delay for each frame anywhere from 20 ms to 10,000 ms, or apply one delay to every frame at once. For looping, pick Infinite or a fixed repeat of 1×, 2×, 3×, or 5×.
What do the Quality and Dither settings do?
Quality (1–30) controls color quantization: lower values keep more accurate color but take longer to render, while higher values are faster and produce smaller files. Dithering uses the Floyd-Steinberg algorithm to fake extra colors within the GIF's 256-color limit — turn it on for photos and smooth gradients.
Why is my GIF file so large?
File size grows with output dimensions, the number of frames, and color complexity. To shrink it, reduce the output size, use fewer frames, or raise the quality number (which lowers color accuracy but yields smaller files).
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Every image is read and encoded with JavaScript inside your browser, using web workers for the heavy lifting. Your pictures never leave your device, and no usage data is collected.
