About
The JPG to GIF Converter transforms your JPG images into GIF format instantly in your browser. GIF is widely supported and works well for simple graphics, though it's limited to 256 colors which may affect photographs with complex color gradients.
It runs entirely in your browser, without uploading files to a server, making it suitable for quick conversions and sensitive images.
FAQ
Why convert JPG to GIF?
GIF is useful when you need universal compatibility for simple graphics, or when working with legacy systems that specifically require GIF format.
Will I lose image quality?
Likely yes for photographs. GIF only supports 256 colors, so images with many colors or gradients will show noticeable quality loss. Simple graphics convert better.
Is GIF good for photographs?
Generally no. GIF's 256-color limit makes it poor for photographs. JPG, PNG, or WebP are much better choices for photographic content.
Does this create animated GIFs?
No, this tool creates static GIF images. The output will be a single-frame GIF from your JPG source image.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. All conversions happen locally in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
