GIF vs PNG: Which Format Should You Use?
GIF supports animation and a limited color palette. PNG is useful for crisp static graphics and supports full-color pixel data and transparency. Converting cannot restore color detail that was never in the original GIF.
| Feature | GIF | PNG Output |
|---|---|---|
| Animation | Can animate | First frame only, static |
| Transparency | 1-bit transparent palette entry | RGBA PNG where supported |
| Ideal use | Simple motion or graphics | Still graphic, thumbnail or screenshot |
