GIF Frame Extractor uses ImageMagick’s -coalesce command to normalise each frame’s canvas position before extraction. Coalescing resolves the GIF disposal method so each extracted PNG shows a complete composited frame rather than a partial delta. Frames are exported as 32-bit PNG (lossless, alpha-capable). The ZIP mode bundles up to 200 frames; use the frame-range selector for longer GIFs. The contact-sheet mode uses ImageMagick’s montage to tile all frames into a single PNG grid.

Frequently asked questions

What formats are the extracted frames?

All frames are extracted as PNG files. The ZIP mode bundles all PNGs in a single archive; Single Frame lets you download one PNG; Contact Sheet exports the full grid as one PNG image.

Is there a limit on the number of frames?

The ZIP mode is capped at 200 frames per download. If your GIF has more, a frame-range selector appears so you can choose which frames to include. Single Frame and Contact Sheet handle any frame count within the 20 MB upload limit.

What is a contact sheet?

A contact sheet tiles all frames into a grid — 2, 3, or 4 columns — and exports it as a single PNG. Useful for reviewing all frames at once without opening individual files.

What is the maximum file size?

Up to 20 MB. Large GIFs with many frames may take a few extra seconds to process.

Are my files stored after extraction?

No. Uploaded GIFs and extracted frames are removed from our servers within 30 minutes.
