What this tool does
This tool turns multiple static images into an animated GIF. Upload up to 50 frames, set the speed for each one, arrange the order, and download a looping animation. Everything processes in your browser - no upload required.
How to use it
1. Upload your frames
Drag a sequence of images into the timeline or select them from your device. They appear as thumbnails in order.
2. Arrange and time the frames
Drag thumbnails to reorder them. Use the delay slider to set how long each frame displays - lower numbers mean faster animation.
3. Set dimensions and download
Choose the output width and height. Click convert to generate the GIF, then download it directly.
When you'd use this
Creating software tutorials for documentation
Explaining a multi-click workflow in text frustrates users. Combine 4-5 sequential screenshots into a looping GIF that shows the exact steps visually.
Showcasing product variations in emails
Instead of cramming separate photos of each color variant into your email, stack them into a rotating GIF. Customers see all options in one compact frame.
Animating architectural before-and-after reveals
Drop progressive renderings (before, during, after) into the timeline. The resulting animation shows the transformation dynamically to clients.
Making banner ads that grab attention
Static banners get ignored. Animate three text graphics flashing a promotional message rhythmically to command viewer attention and boost click-through rates.
Turning burst photos into living portraits
Your phone captured 10 rapid shots of your kid's genuine smile. Compile the burst sequence into an animation that brings the subtle movements back to life.
What to know before using it
GIF files can get large quickly
Each frame adds to the file size. A 30-frame animation at full resolution might be 10MB+. Reduce dimensions or frame count if you need to stay under email limits.
Frame delay controls speed
Delay is measured in milliseconds. 100ms per frame = 10 frames per second (fast). 500ms = 2 frames per second (slideshow pace).
Different-sized images get normalized
If you upload frames with different dimensions, the tool scales them to a uniform canvas. Set your target width and height before converting.
GIFs loop forever by default
The output GIF will repeat continuously in browsers and most image viewers. This is standard GIF behavior.
FAQs
Is this GIF maker really free?
Yes. No watermarks, no subscriptions, no daily limits. You can create as many GIFs as you need.
How many frames can I use?
Up to 50 images per GIF. For smooth animation, 15-30 frames usually works well. More frames = larger file size.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. All processing happens in your browser. Your photos never leave your computer.
What formats can I upload?
JPG, PNG, and WebP all work. You can mix formats in the same animation without issues.
Can I adjust the animation speed?
Yes. The delay slider controls how long each frame displays. Test different speeds using the live preview before downloading.
Will the GIF be smaller than my original photos?
Usually not - GIFs combine multiple frames into one file, so they're often larger than individual source images. Reducing dimensions helps keep file size manageable.
