Convert your GIF file to PSD

Convert image files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) file and, from this, create a new image saved in the PSD (Adobe Photoshop) format that you can then download and edit within image file editors or use for high-definition printing applications. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple GIF image files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

Along with converting GIF image files to PSD, our tool allows you to also adjust the image with some simple effects, such as applying a grayscale filter to the image. These additional options are available within the Options tab. Along with grayscale, you can also mirror or flip the image if needed. For single GIF file uploads, you will also see options to resize and rotate your image.

Description

GIF files have been around since the mid-to-late 1980's and were introduced by CompuServe as a way to compress color images into small file sizes suitable for downloading, at which time most download speeds were limited. The format allows varying-size color palettes of up to 256 colors in total to be defined from a palette of 16 million colors.

Later on, the ability to add animations to the GIF file format was added. GIF files became a popular image file format for the early internet due to their small size, large color palette, and animation capabilities, and they are still popular today.

Description

The PSD file format is the native raster image format used by Adobe's Photoshop image application. The format stores raster image data and is the most popular image format for computer graphics around today. Originally available on Macintosh computers, Photoshop was ported to Windows in 1993.

The format has evolved over the years and, compared to similar formats, stores not just raster image data but additional information such as layers, masks, alpha channels, clipping paths, and more. PSD files have a limit of 30,000 pixels in height and width and an overall file size limit of 2GB.
