This online utility lets you fit an animated GIF into a new rectangular frame. You can specify the exact width and height of the rectangle and choose a fitting method: center it, resize it proportionally with edge alignment, or stretch/crop it to fully cover the new shape. You can also use the built-in GIF player to preview the animation in real time and view the original and modified GIFs' size and other useful information.

This is a browser-based program that helps you neatly reframe a GIF inside a rectangular or square shape of your chosen size. It preserves the original animation without distortion (meaning the GIF won't be stretched or squashed) and applies changes consistently across all frames. For example, you can convert a wide GIF to a square format for use in social media posts, profile images, or an app interface. You can also do the opposite and convert a square GIF into a portrait or landscape GIF. To start, simply set the desired output rectangle dimensions in the width and height fields (in the options). If you want a square, then enter the same value for both settings (for example, 600×600). Next, select how the GIF should be fitted in the new frame. The "Center Fit" is ideal when you want to place your GIF inside a rectangle or square without cropping. The animation is placed exactly in the center, leaving empty margins around it if the rectangle or square is larger than the input GIF. Otherwise, if the rectangle or square is smaller than the input GIF, then it's scaled down proportionally so that it perfectly fits inside the frame. The "Edge-to-edge Fit" is useful when you want the GIF to match specific proportions as precisely as physically possible. The GIF is resized so that at least two opposite sides touch the rectangle's borders, without cropping. In this case, empty margins may still appear on the other two opposite sides. However, if the new proportions are the same as the original GIF's proportions, then it will fit perfectly in the new size. The "Full Cover Fit" is best when you need a rectangle to be fully filled with the animation. In this mode, the GIF is enlarged until the entire rectangle is covered. Parts of the image that extend beyond the new size are trimmed off. You can adjust how much area gets trimmed interactively by moving the highlighted part of the GIF in the input editor. The "Background Color" option lets you set a fill color for all transparent regions in the GIF. Keep in mind the transparency limitation of the GIF format: pixels can only be either fully opaque or fully transparent. Semi-transparency is not supported. To better see the boundaries and margins of a GIF with a transparent background, enable the "Highlight GIF Edges" option. It will draw a line around the image's actual physical dimensions. Before exporting the final GIF, use the "Preview Animation" option to play both the original GIF and the fitted version. Gifabulous!

In this example, we fit a rectangular GIF (of size 128 by 130 pixels) into a square (of size 240 by 240 pixels) without resizing or modifying its content. The input GIF shows a pixelated sprite of Tizoc from the Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters game series. Since we want to keep the exact pixel art without scaling, we're applying the "Center Fit" mode. This mode places the sprite in the center of a larger square and leaves the original GIF unchanged. To maintain the transparent background and see the exact borders of the original sprite within the new area, we set the background fill to transparent and enable the "Highlight GIF Edges" option.

This example shows a chipmunk animation chewing a seed. We switch to the "Edge-to-edge Fit" mode and adjust the animation to a rectangle with the proportions of 5:4 by setting the output size to 500×400px. Because the new rectangle is wider than the original GIF, the program zooms the animation so that its top and bottom edges align with the new frame. As a result, empty area appears on the left and right sides of the rectangle, which we fill with the "honeydew" color. (Source: Pexels.)
In this example, we use our tool to convert a static GIF photo of Stockholm buildings from horizontal to vertical orientation. In the tool options, we enter the new width and height values (300 by 417 pixels) for the vertical output GIF and select the "Full Cover Fit" fitting mode. In this mode, the GIF completely fills the vertical frame. This allows us to focus on the two central buildings while cropping off other buildings from the left and right sides. (Source: Pexels.)
