Why it lives in the tab
GIF transparency and PNG transparency don't actually work the same way under the hood — GIF has a 'one color is fully transparent' flag, PNG has a real 8-bit alpha channel. But for the common case of pulling a sharp, lossless first frame out of a GIF without an upload roundtrip, PNG is the right answer. We do it in the tab.
Frequently asked
Why PNG instead of JPG?
PNG is lossless and supports transparency. GIFs often have transparent pixels (the GIF format has a 'transparent color' index); PNG preserves that perfectly. JPG flattens it to white.
Does the animation come over?
No. PNG can hold animation via APNG, but standard PNG can't. We export the first frame as a static image.
Will the file be larger?
Often, yes — PNG is lossless. But if your GIF is short or sharp-edged, the PNG can actually be smaller.
Does GIF transparency carry to PNG transparency?
Yes. The GIF transparent-color index maps to PNG alpha = 0.
Can I do multiple GIFs at once?
Yes — drop a folder, each becomes a PNG.
