Convert PNG to GIF FAQ
- Can I convert multiple PNG images into one animated GIF?

- Will the converted GIF maintain the original image quality?
- The tool processes the uploaded PNG to preserve resolution and visual details during conversion, but GIF format limits colors to 256, so complex images with gradients may lose some subtle color transitions compared to the original PNG.
- Is there a file size limit for the PNG I can upload?
- The material does not specify file size restrictions, but very large PNG files may take longer to process. For optimal results, consider the intended use case when selecting your source image.
