JPG to GIF Converter
Convert JPG to GIF using a real file encoder. Control resolution, sharpening and color adjustments, plus lossy quality where supported.
Why convert JPG to GIF?
Use GIF when your next application needs compatibility with software requiring indexed GIF files. JPEG photographs use lossy compression, so artifacts and missing detail in the original are already baked into its pixels.
The converter decodes the JPG image, applies your selected size or appearance adjustments, and writes GIF output. GIF limits each frame to a 256-color palette, so gradients and photographs may show banding; a single input image becomes a static GIF, not an animation.
Before you download
- Converting from JPEG cannot restore detail that the original JPEG compression already discarded.
- The GIF encoder uses a limited color palette; gradients can look less smooth than in PNG or WebP.
