About GIF

GIF stores up to 256 colours per frame and supports animation, which makes it great for memes and terrible for photographs. Many upload forms — job portals, government sites, older marketplaces — reject .gif outright.

About JPG

JPG is the lowest-common-denominator photo format: accepted everywhere, small at reasonable quality settings, but lossy and without transparency support.

Why convert GIF to JPG?

Convert GIF → JPG when you need maximum compatibility and small file size, and neither animation nor transparency matters — profile pictures, form uploads, email attachments, and thumbnails.

What people use it for

  • Upload to a form or portal that only accepts JPG
  • Create a lightweight thumbnail from an animated GIF
  • Attach an image to email without the size of a PNG
  • Feed a GIF into a tool or printer that can't read GIF
  • Batch-convert a folder of GIFs for a legacy system (Pro)

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop a .gif file

    Click the drop zone or drag any GIF file in. Files stay on your device.

  2. 2

    Adjust quality (optional)

    Drag the quality slider. 90%+ is visually indistinguishable from the source; lower values shrink the file further.

  3. 3

    Click Convert to JPG

    The conversion runs in your browser. When it's done, click Download.

Frequently asked questions

JPG has no alpha channel, so transparent pixels are flattened onto a white background.
