Fidelity
Your design, in motion
Every frame is drawn from your upload, so the character or logo stays recognizable instead of being reinvented.
Animate
Turn a PNG into an animated GIF that keeps your design.
Upload a still image of a character, mascot, logo or icon, pick a motion and get a short looping GIF. The animation is drawn from your image, so colors, outlines and proportions stay the same from frame to frame.

Steps
How it works
PNG to animated GIF means making new in-between frames from one still image. CleanVector draws eight frames of the motion you pick, matches the first and last frame so the loop is smooth, and saves the result as a 512 px GIF.
How CleanVector works- 01
Upload the image
Use a PNG, JPG or WebP up to 8 MB. A single character or logo on a plain background animates best.
- 02
Pick a motion
Choose wave, blink, jump, talk, idle bounce or float. Add a short note if something should change, like a prop or sparkles.
- 03
Download the GIF
The looping GIF is ready in under a minute. It is also saved in your library to download again later.
Output
What you get

Pick a motion and get the GIF. There are no keyframes, layers or rigging to set up.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I turn a PNG into an animated GIF?
Upload the PNG, choose a motion such as wave or float, and select Make the GIF. CleanVector draws the frames from your image and returns a looping GIF you can download.
Is it free?
Each GIF uses 8 credits. Free accounts get monthly credits without a card, so you can try it before choosing a plan. Downloads are always included.
Will the animation keep my exact design?
It stays close: colors, outlines and proportions are kept from your image. Small details can shift between frames, so check the GIF before you publish it.
Does the GIF have a transparent background?
No. GIFs are made on a plain white background so the edges stay clean in every frame. Use a white or light page behind it.
What size is the GIF?
The GIF is 512 by 512 pixels with eight frames in a seamless loop, small enough for chats, slides and web pages.
