JPG to GIF

Convert a JPG photo into a static GIF image. GIF only supports 256 colours, so this reduces your photo’s colour palette using an in-browser encoder - fine for simple graphics and logos, but photos with smooth gradients or subtle shading will show visible banding compared to the JPG original.

Frequently asked questions

Will the image quality change?

Yes, noticeably for photos. GIF is limited to 256 colours total, so smooth gradients and subtle colour transitions in a photo will show visible banding that was not present in the JPG.

Is this good for logos or simple graphics?

Yes, GIF works well for flat-colour graphics, logos, and simple illustrations, where the 256-colour limit rarely causes visible loss.

Does this create an animated GIF?

No, this produces a single static frame. Your source is a still image, so there is nothing to animate.
