GIF to PNG

The first frame as a lossless PNG, transparency and all.

How to convert GIF to PNG

  1. Drop the GIF.
  2. Nothing to choose — PNG is lossless.
  3. Press Convert and download the PNG.

What happens to your file

The GIF is decoded on Fylane’s servers — the first frame of an animation — and written as PNG with no loss and its transparent areas kept transparent.

Questions

Why PNG rather than JPG?

PNG keeps transparency and every one of the GIF’s colours exactly; JPG is smaller but flattens both.

Do it once, not on every form

A form that wants a square JPEG under 240 KB says so on the page. The Fylane extension reads that, fits your photo to it, and puts it in the field — without you working out what 240 KB looks like.

And it keeps the result. The next application that asks for a résumé, a cover letter and a photo fills all three from one tap, each one refitted to what that site accepts.

Your files stay in the browser, encrypted, on your machine. Nothing is uploaded to keep them and nothing is sent anywhere to fill a form.

Filmed from the extension: a phone portrait against a form that takes only a square JPEG under 240 KB.
