Frequently asked questions
How do I make a GIF smaller for Discord or Slack?
Reduce the dimensions here first, then use the GIF Compressor to lower the color count or skip frames if the file is still too large.
Will resizing distort my GIF?
Not while the aspect ratio lock is on: the height follows the width automatically.
Can I enlarge a small GIF?
Yes, up to 2,000 pixels per side, but enlarging cannot add detail that was not in the original frames.
