# Convert Images to GIF

Turn a series of images into an animated GIF. Upload JPG, PNG, or WebP files, drag to reorder the frames, set the delay between frames, and create your animation.

Turning a stack of separate images into one animation is the whole job here, and the part that actually matters is the order. You add your JPG or PNG files, then drag them into the exact sequence you want them to play — first frame to last — and the GIF cycles through them in that order. That's what makes it possible to build a real animation out of stills: photograph an object from a dozen angles for a spinning product view, snap a plant at the same time each day for a growth sequence, or line up the steps of a recipe so they advance on their own. Once the frames are in order, you set how long each one holds on screen, so a fast flip and a slow slideshow are just different delay values. Then you export, and what was a folder full of individual photos becomes a single looping file you can post anywhere a GIF is accepted.

## How it works

1. **Add Your Images** — Pick the JPG or PNG stills you want to animate, in the order they should play
2. **Arrange & Set Speed** — Drag frames into the right sequence and choose the delay between them in milliseconds
3. **Export the GIF** — Build the animation and download a finished, looping GIF ready to share

## Use cases

- **Product Spin Views**: Photograph an item from many angles and animate them into a rotating 360 look.
- **Time-Lapse Sequences**: String daily or hourly shots together to show something change over time.
- **Step-by-Step Tutorials**: Sequence how-to photos so each step advances automatically.
- **Before-and-After**: Flip between two or more states to show a transformation in one file.

## Tips

- **Order Is Everything**: Drag frames into the exact play sequence before you worry about anything else — a misplaced frame is obvious once it loops.
- **Name Files in Sequence First**: If you number your images 01, 02, 03 before adding them, they tend to land in the right order from the start.
- **Keep Frames the Same Size**: Stills with matching dimensions line up cleanly so the animation doesn't jump or jitter between frames.
- **More Frames, Smoother Motion**: A few images give a slideshow feel; many closely-spaced frames read as actual movement.

## FAQ

### How do I control the order of the frames?

Drag each image into position after adding it. The GIF plays your frames top to bottom in the order you arrange them.

### What image formats can I turn into a GIF?

Standard stills like JPG and PNG. You add them as separate files and they become the frames of one animation.

### How many images can I combine?

As many as you need for the animation — just remember that more frames make a larger final file.

### Do my images all need to be the same size?

It helps. Matching dimensions keep frames aligned so the animation plays smoothly instead of shifting around.

## Problems solved

- Separate photos that won't play as one animation
- Frames landing in the wrong order
- No simple way to set the play sequence
- Combining a set of stills into a single shareable file

## Stats

- **Drag to order** arrange every frame
- **JPG + PNG** stills become frames
- **One file** from many images
