Convert GIF to PNG
Extract a clean PNG still from a GIF (first frame) for thumbnails, previews and documentation.
What happens when you convert GIF to PNG
Extracts the first frame of a GIF as a still PNG. GIF is limited to a 256-colour palette; PNG has no such limit, so the frame is written out at full colour depth exactly as the browser decoded it, with transparency preserved.
Good for
- Pulling a clean thumbnail or poster frame out of an animation
- Getting a still image for documentation, a slide or a blog post
- Working with a single frame in an editor that does not handle GIF well
Worth knowing
- Only the first frame is converted — animation is not preserved, and there is no frame picker.
- The 256-colour banding already in the GIF stays; PNG cannot invent colours that were discarded.
- GIF's single-level transparency may show hard edges compared to a true alpha channel.
