Padding adds empty space around the GIF — similar to CSS padding. It increases the canvas size while keeping the original animation centered.

Can I set different padding on each side?

Yes. Top, right, bottom, and left padding can be set independently, or linked together for uniform padding.

What color is the padding area?

You can pick any solid color using the color picker, or choose transparent padding.

Does padding change the GIF's aspect ratio?

Yes. Adding padding changes the total canvas dimensions, which changes the aspect ratio unless you add equal amounts on all sides.

How does padding affect file size?

Padding increases canvas size, which adds more data per frame. Larger padding values will noticeably increase file size.

Can I use padding to center a GIF in a square frame?

Yes. Calculate the difference between width and height, then split that value equally between left/right or top/bottom padding.

Does the animation still loop after adding padding?

Yes. Loop settings and frame delays are preserved exactly.

Is transparent padding supported?

Yes. Select 'Transparent' as the background color for transparent padding edges.

Can I add a border using padding?

Yes. Add equal padding on all sides and choose a color — this creates a solid colored border around your GIF.

Is the original GIF modified?

No. A new padded GIF is generated in your browser. Your original file remains unchanged.
