GIFSlicer
Stack your effects.
Change any of them later.
Every edit in GIF Slicer is a stage. Tweak one or delete it, and everything else stays as it was. Save the whole stack as an FX Chain and give the next clip the same look in one click.

Edit in stages, not in one take.
Most quick GIF tools bake each change in. One wrong step and you start over. GIF Slicer keeps a stage history instead, so the clip is never locked.
Every change is a stage
Crop, filter, border, fade: each one lands as its own step in the stage history, in the order you add it.
Fix one, keep the rest
Don't like an effect? Modify or delete that stage. Everything after it still applies. No starting over.
Save it as an FX Chain
Turn a stack you like into an FX Chain and apply your signature look to the next clip, and the one after that.
Ten kinds of stage, dozens of effects.
Emotes, reaction clips, web loops, stream alerts, sprite sheets.
Transform
Rotate, flip, crop and resize with Lanczos, Bicubic and other resampling.
Adjust
Brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, or a hex color overlay.
Filters
Cinematic, Cyberpunk, Lo-Fi, Retro, Oil Paint, Sketch, Edge and more.
Distort
Implode, Swirl, Wave, Fisheye, plus warps like Ripple, Bulge and Mesh.
Draw
Stamp a shape, a line of text, an image, or paint onto every frame.
Borders
Solid, polaroid, glow, neon, dashed, bevel, shadow and other frames.
Motion
Shake, zoom, pan, spin or bounce, with the gaps filled in your color.
Fades
Fade in or out, crossfade frames, dip to a color, or flash.
Key
Knock out a screen color, flood from a pinned point, or fill a box.
Video
Lay another clip over the frame or in a box, with its own speed and opacity.
Down to the single frame. Down to the kilobyte.
Total frame control
- Frame editingDelete, duplicate, skip or reorder individual frames.
- TimingGlobal delays, exact milliseconds, or a target FPS.
- Smart skippingDrop every Nth frame to cut size without hand-picking.
- SplitKeep the left or right, trim both ends, or cut a section out of the middle.
- LoopPing-pong boomerang, or repeat the sequence.
Optimization that keeps quality
- Target file sizePick a size in KB and let compression work toward it.
- Tight framesEach frame stores only the box of pixels that changed.
- Similar framesDrop near-duplicates and give their time to the frame that stays.
- Match previousReuse pixels that barely changed, keep only the changed rectangle.
- Lossy and paletteDial compression, cut colors from 256, optimize transparency.
Out the door in whatever shape you need.
Web-ready GIFs, editor-ready video, or every frame as a PNG for sprite sheets and game dev.
Soundtrack: add a background track or a sound effect. Video exports mix it in; GIFs and frame dumps stay silent.
Your clips never leave your computer.
Free online GIF makers want your file on their server first. GIF Slicer does all of it on your own machine.
