Frequently Asked Questions
How many PNG files can I combine into one GIF?
You can combine multiple PNG files to create an animated GIF. The optimal number depends on your desired animation length and file size requirements.
What happens to PNG transparency in GIF format?
GIF supports basic transparency (on/off), but not the alpha transparency that PNG offers. Transparent areas will be converted to GIF's simpler transparency format.
Can I control the animation speed?
Yes! Our converter allows you to adjust frame timing to create the perfect animation speed for your needs.
Will my PNG colors be preserved in the GIF?
GIF uses a 256-color palette, so some color reduction may occur. Our converter optimizes the palette to maintain the best possible color accuracy.
What's the recommended image size for GIF animation?
For web use, 800x600 pixels or smaller is recommended to keep file sizes manageable while maintaining good quality.
Can I use the animated GIF for commercial purposes?
You can use the created GIF according to the licensing of your original PNG images. Our tool doesn't change the usage rights of your source materials.
