Frequently Asked Questions

How do I extract frames from a GIF?

Upload your animated GIF to ezyimg's GIF Splitter and click Extract Frames. The tool outputs every frame as a separate PNG image, available to download individually or as a ZIP.

What format are the extracted frames?

Frames are extracted as PNG files, which are lossless and preserve all color detail. PNG files work with any image editing software.

How many frames does a GIF have?

After uploading a GIF and clicking Extract, ezyimg will show the total frame count. Most GIFs have between 10 and 200 frames. Longer GIFs can have 500+ frames.

Can I use extracted frames to remake a GIF?

Yes. Download the extracted PNG frames, edit them in any image editor, then re-upload them to ezyimg's GIF Maker to create a new animated GIF.

Is there a frame limit for splitting?

No server limit — processing runs in your browser. Very large GIFs with hundreds of frames may take longer to extract and package.
