Surely at some point you've watched an animated GIF and thought: "I want to have an image of some frame of the animation!" Although you could take a screenshot, the work is too tedious and sometimes you need to be very fast to get the snapshot. For this reason, from NeoTeo we bring you the five programs to extract images from a GIF. Some of the image export formats of the programs are: BMP, EXIF, EMF, TIFF, WMF, GIF, JPG, or PNG.
7GIF
We'll start with 7GIF, a platform that can save a specific frame of the animated GIF or all frames that make up the animation. You can save the images in the following formats: PNG, TIFF, JPEG, GIF, WMF, or BMP. The environment also has other options such as saving as an animated GIF and increasing or decreasing the animation speed, among many other options. The program is free for Windows operating systems.
GIF Viewer
We continue with GIF Viewer, a platform that lets you view animated GIFs from its interface. But the environment has a function to extract frames in image format (BMP, EXIF, EMF, TIFF, WMF, GIF, JPG, or PNG) from an animated GIF. Everything is very easy to use; you only have to click on the option Extract Frames..., to extract one frame or all frames. The program is free and available for Windows operating systems.
AniView
AniView is an animated GIF viewer that has an option to extract frames from a GIF in image format (BMP, TIFF, JPG, GIF, or PNG). The platform is very simple and comes with some extra options that make it very interesting (manipulate the Loop, etc.). The program is available for free for Windows operating systems.
Gif Image Tools
Gif Image Tools is a very good program for extracting images from an animated GIF, but its main feature is the large number of output image formats (BMP, EMF, ICO, EXIF, GIF, WMF, TIFF, JPEG, or PNG). The program is free and you will find it available for Windows operating systems.
Extract frames from an animated GIF with Paint.NET
Without a doubt, Paint.NET is one of the most powerful image editors on the market. But you probably didn't know that with the Animated Image plugin you can export the frames of an animated GIF in various image formats (JPG, PNG, etc.). The plugin is completely free.
We hope that with the five programs to extract images from an animated GIF, you can extract the frames you need.
