Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert GIF to PNG?

PNG supports millions of colors (vs. 256 in GIF), offers better lossless compression for most images, and supports full alpha transparency (vs. binary transparency in GIF). PNG is the better format for static graphics, icons, and screenshots.

Can I convert animated GIFs to PNG?

The converter can extract individual frames from animated GIFs as separate PNG files. PNG does not natively support animation, so the animation itself is not preserved in a single PNG file. For animated alternatives, consider WebP or APNG.

Will the PNG file be larger than the GIF?

It depends on the image. Simple graphics with few colors may be slightly larger as PNG. However, PNG often achieves better compression for photographic or complex content, and the quality improvement (millions of colors, better transparency) is worth any marginal size increase.
