Tips for Creating Great GIFs
Optimize Dimensions

Keep your GIF dimensions reasonable (around 320x240 pixels) to maintain a smaller file size. Larger dimensions result in larger files.

Frame Rate Matters

For smooth animations, aim for 10-15 frames per second. Lower frame rates create choppier but smaller GIFs.

Limit Colors

GIFs work best with limited color palettes. Images with fewer colors will result in smaller, more efficient GIFs.

Keep it Short

The best GIFs are brief (2-5 seconds). Longer animations result in larger files that may be slow to load.

Frequently Asked Questions

Since this tool processes files in your browser, the maximum file size depends on your device's memory. Generally, we recommend keeping individual image files under 5MB and videos under 100MB for optimal performance. For larger files, consider using desktop software.

GIF file size depends on several factors: dimensions, number of frames, color complexity, and quality settings. To reduce file size, try:
  • Reducing the dimensions
  • Lowering the quality setting
  • Using fewer frames (higher frame delay or lower frame rate)
  • Using images with simpler color palettes

Yes, your data is completely secure. This tool processes all files directly in your browser. No images or videos are uploaded to our servers. Once you close or refresh the page, all data is cleared from memory.

This basic version of the GIF Maker doesn't support adding text or effects directly. To add text or effects, we recommend:
  1. Prepare your images with text/effects using an image editor before uploading
  2. Create your GIF first, then use a GIF editor tool to add text
  3. For videos, add text in your video editing software before converting to GIF
