GIF Maker — Images to Animated GIF, Free & Private
Drop 2–30 images, set frame speed and output size, watch the live preview, and download your animated GIF. 100% local encoding — your photos never leave your device.
Quick answer: Turn photos into an animated GIF right in your browser: reorder frames, set speed and size, preview live, download the GIF. Nothing is uploaded — encoding happens on your device.
How to use
- Add images — drop 2–30 JPG/PNG frames; drag order matters or use arrows.
- Tune — frame delay (ms), max width (smaller = smaller file), loop forever.
- Preview & download — watch the live animation, then save your .gif.
About this tool
This GIF maker encodes pictures into a looping GIF89a entirely inside your browser — a compact JavaScript encoder reads your frames, quantizes colors to the GIF palette and writes the file locally. Reorder frames with the arrow buttons, tune delay per frame, and cap the output size to keep the file small. Honest note: GIF limits colors to 256 per frame, so gradients may band slightly; for video-to-GIF, export frames first (screenshot the moments) and feed them here.
