About
Got a JPG that needs to be in GIF format? Maybe you are working with a system that only accepts GIFs, or you want a static GIF as a starting point for an animation project. This converter handles the format swap cleanly, reducing the color palette to fit within GIF's 256-color limit while keeping the image looking sharp.
Features
Smart color quantization keeps the GIF looking as close to the original JPG as possible
Instant preview so you can check for color banding before downloading
No server involved — the conversion happens entirely on your device
Produces a standard GIF file that is compatible with every browser and platform
Guide
Upload your JPG image by dragging it in or clicking to browse
Preview the converted GIF to check how the color reduction looks
If everything looks good, download the GIF file
Need to tweak it? Upload a different JPG and try again
Pro Tips
Photos with lots of gradients (like skies or skin tones) may show visible banding — that is a GIF format limitation, not a bug
If the color reduction looks too harsh, try simplifying the image in a photo editor first
This creates a static GIF — if you want to animate multiple JPGs into a sequence, use the GIF maker tool instead
