How To Create A Rotating Image

Animate a static image with pre-defined templates

Upload a static image that you want to animate
(Only PNG, GIF, JPG, BMP, WBMP and ICO images are accepted)

The "Animate static image" tool helps creating an animated image from a static (non-animated) one. The created animations are based on pre-defined templates.

Having uploaded your image, simply

- select an animation template,
- click the "Generate animation" button.

This tool only creates an animated image from a static one.

These are pre-created animation templates from which you can select in order to animate your image or word

Animation template

A button corresponds to the image type you need to generate (GIF - Animated GIF, APNG - Animated PNG format).

Note: .GIF format supports only absolute transparency or no transparency at all. Therefore, when you select the GIF format and set background to transparent you will still be able to set a background color that will fill the back layer of semi-transparent parts of your image.

GIF APNG

Set the background of an animation to transparent.

For GIF images all semi-transparent pixels will be in front of the selected background color.

All transparent pixels will be filled with the given background. If "Use environment colors" function is used, the pixels that are converted to semi-transparent will be filled with the selected background color with the respective foreground color amount

Background color

Identifies the interval of time between frames switching. The closer the slider is to + the faster the animation goes and vise versa.

In order to have custom delay between particular frames, use the Modify frames settings button in Advanced options

Animation speed

Denotes width and height of an animation in pixels.

In order for the image to have proportional width and height, check the "Constrain proportions" box and it will change the other parameter in regards to the entered one.

If you want to get back to the original size of the image, click on the "Reset sizes" link under "Animation size" title.
