This free sprite sheet to GIF converter turns a grid of frames into a looping animation you can preview and share. Open the sheet - a PNG with transparency, a JPG, anything - and set how many columns and rows it has; a small copy of the sheet shows the grid so you can see the slicing is right, and a strip of square frames is recognised on its own. Set the frame count if the last row has empty cells, pick the frame rate, and the preview plays the GIF. It is the fastest way to check a walk cycle before it goes into a game, or to show a sprite animation on a page or in a chat that cannot run the game.
Pixel art is meant to be seen bigger than it is stored. The scale options draw every frame at 2x or 4x with smoothing off, so each pixel becomes a sharp square block instead of a blur. Transparent areas in the sheet stay transparent in the GIF, so the sprite sits on whatever background the page has. To turn a GIF back into a sheet, use the /gif-to-sprite-sheet/ tool.
The same slicing also goes out as numbered PNG files in a ZIP, at the chosen scale, for engines and editors that want single frames rather than a sheet. Press the ZIP link under the controls, or the Z key.
Your sheet never leaves your device. It is sliced, scaled and encoded into a GIF entirely inside your browser, and the ZIP is packed there too; nothing is uploaded, there is no signup and no watermark, and once the page is open the tool even works offline.
Open the sheet, set columns and rows until the grid on the small copy lines up with the frames, choose a frame rate, and download. Set Frames lower if the last row has empty cells.
This tool slices an even grid without gaps. Trim the padding off the sheet in an image editor first, or export the frames from the tool that made the sheet.
Most pixel-art walk cycles look right between 8 and 12 frames per second; effects and fast animations go higher. GIF timing rounds to hundredths of a second, so 30 fps actually plays at about 33.
Yes. Transparent pixels in the sheet become transparent in the GIF, one shared colour index, so the sprite sits cleanly on any background.
No. Everything runs in your browser - nothing is transmitted anywhere, and the tool keeps working offline once the page is open.
