In their own words
makegif
makegif is a free browser-based tool for creating and editing animated GIFs on the web. It can build GIFs from JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP files and screenshots, or convert short videos supplied as local files or direct video URLs. Video conversion includes controls for duration, size, frame rate and quality, with a 200MB maximum file size and a 5–30 fps range. Frame tools let users reorder or reverse frames, remove frames, and set one delay globally or different delays per frame. Separate cropper and resizer pages handle animated GIFs and list a 30MB file limit. Exports are watermark-free. Files used in browser tools are intended to stay local in the browser unless a feature says otherwise. The site may collect basic analytics, including visits, device type and referrer data. makegif is independently maintained, and its tools are provided as-is.
